Crypt550 0.5

Crypt550 is a simple program that can help you solve cryptograms, crosswords, and other word puzzles. What it does is returns a list of words that match a pattern. For example, if a cryptogram has the encrypted word such as "fgttw", inputing this word will return all words that match that pattern, including one like "hello".<br />All patterns are typed in as a string into the text field at the top of the window. There are several different things that can be used:<br />1. Letters<br />The most basic thing is pure letters. For example, typing in "hello" will only return one word, "hello". There is not much to do with just letters.<br />2. Wild Cards<br />Wild Cards signify that that particular character can be anything. The character used to represent this is a dash ("-"). For example, typing "--" will return all two letter words, while typing "a-" will return all two letter words that start with a, like "an" and "as".<br />3. Replacing Characters<br />Replacing Characters are used for signiffing patterns, such as those in cryptograms. Numbers ("0" to "9") are used for this. An example would be "0110", where the first and last character are the same, and the two middle characters are also the same (also, the character that "0" represents can't be the same as the one "1" represents).
