I'm happy to release the source code, with one caveat: The internal database of 700,000+ words and phrases is something I cobbled together from various sources, not all of which are publicly available. I have no pride of authorship, but I do hesitate to release into the world something that might be a resource for would-be password crackers. So I've decided to post the Zig source along with a smaller database, based on a public resource (https://www.wordgamedictionary.com/english-word-list/download/english.txt) that is a subset of the original database. You can download the source code here: https://ammaze.net/xywwweb/dls/frase-source.zip The zip file includes executables compiled with the smaller database. The program output is still quite serviceable, I think. The smaller database is open-source, a text file consisting of words/phrases separated by vertical piping symbols "|". You can add to it as you see fit. One obvious way to expand it would be to add words and phrases from languages other than English. -- Carl Distefano cld@xxxxxxxxxx
