Show matching words in Dictionary with a wildcard
Authored by: primitivehuman on Jul 15, '07 02:30:11PM
I found a useful application by Sheehan Olver called Crypt 550. It supports many different ways to find a dictionary match. You can use numbers like this "1001" to return :

anna
boob
deed...

You can use expressions like this "*ism" to return:

deism
prism
autism...

It uses the hyphen as a substitute for the question mark.

His open source program is available at the University of Minnesota's website here: http://www.tc.umn.edu/~olve0003/crypt550.html
