Hi

I've been messing about writing some word and crossword games using /usr/share/dict/words as a dictionary. A `grep -c . /usr/share/dict/words` shows there are 45425 words in the file, but my paper dictionary has some 300000 words in it. Is there a bigger words file available anywhere?

Cheers

Tom
