Clabbers Description

Clabbers is an anagram tool aimed towards solving Scrabble racks. Clabbers is an anagram tool aimed towards solving Scrabble racks. Clabbers project consists of a couple of Perl scripts, a word list, and an SQL schema.It was designed for use with PostgreSQL, though it could be ported to other database backends.Requirements:· PostgreSQL· Perl DBI:Pg libraryUsage:The schema included will work for any word list that uses the plain A to Z alphabet.If you use Debian, you can install everything needed with:apt-get install postgresql libdbd-pg-perlAssuming that we start with an empty database called sowpods which is owned by a user of the same name, we need to load the schema:psql --user sowpods sowpods < sowpods_schema.sqlThis will create 27 tables and several indexes. We next need to generate the main table from the word list, and then load it into the database.make-clabbers-maintable.pl > clabbers-maintable.sqlpsql --user sowpods sowpods < clabbers-maintable.sqlWe then need to generate a metaindex for the word list and load that into the database, too.make-clabbers-index.pl > clabbers-index.sqlpsql --user sowpods sowpods < clabbers-index.sqlThis will take some time to process, it's about 1.6 million INSERTs in total for the SOWPODS wordlist but once done you should be ready to go. To test try:clabbers.pl and_If all is well, this will give you all possible words for those three letter plus one blank tile.martin@winter:~clabbers-0.0.2# ./clabbers.pl and_2 (42) : aa ab ad ae ag ah ai al am an ar as at aw ax ay ba da de di do ea eden fa ha id in ka la ma na ne no nu ny od on pa ta un ya3 (74) : add ado ads adz aid ain ana and ane ani ann ant any ard awn bad bancad can dab dad dae dag dah dak dal dam dan dap das daw day den din don dun ean end fad fan gad gan had han lad mad man mna nab nae nag nah nam nan nap nas nat naw nay ned nid nod oda pad pan rad ran sad san tad tan van wad wan4 (22) : ands band damn dang dank dans dant darn dawn dean dona duan fand hand land mand nada nard pand rand sand wandWhat's New in This Release:· The plperl stored procedure is now used to calculate the word index.
