NAME
       hangman, words - word games

SYNOPSIS
       /usr/games/hangman [ dict ]

       /usr/games/words

DESCRIPTION
       Hangman	chooses	 a  word at least seven letters long from a word list.
       The user is to guess letters one at a time.

       The optional argument names an alternate word list.  The	 special  name
       `-a' gets a particular very large word list.

       Words  prints  all the uncapitalized words in the word list that can be
       made from letters in string.

FILES
       /usr/dict/words		the regular word list
       /crp/dict/web2	   the the -a word list

DIAGNOSTICS
       After each round, hangman reports the average  number  of  guesses  per
       round and the number of rounds.

BUGS
       Hyphenated compounds are run together.

       UNIX software is distributed without the -a word list.
