NAME

       an - Anagram generator

SYNOPSIS

       an  [-w]  [-c  string]  [-d dictionary] [-l number_words] [-m word_length] [-u string] [-n
       number_anagrams] [-h] [-v] [--words]  [--contain  string]  [--dict  dictionary]  [--length
       number_words] [--minimum word_length]  [--used string] [--number number_anagrams] [--help]
       [--version] PHRASE

DESCRIPTION

       an finds all anagrams which can be made from the letters in PHRASE,  using  words  in  the
       specified dictionary. The default is to use /usr/share/dict/words.

OPTIONS

       -w, --words
              Print words that the letters in PHRASE can make, then exit.

       -c, --contain string
              Only print anagrams which contain string.

       -d, --dict dictionary
              Use dictionary file to find words which the letters in PHRASE can make.

       -m, --minimum word_length
              Only include word which are at least word_length long.

       -u, --used string
              Considers  that  letters  in  string  have  already  used when analyzing letters in
              PHRASE.  Like --contain but doesn't print out string.

       -l, --length number_words
              Finds anagrams which have a maximum of number_words words in them.   This  is  very
              useful when number of anagrams which are output is large.

       -n, --number number_anagrams
              Stops after finding number_anagrams anagrams.

       -h, --help
              Print a usage message on standard output, then exit.

       -v, --version
              Print version information on standard output, then exit.
