Would someone please explain how to set up a search for all of the 5- letter stems that take both RE- and -ER? I'm pretty sure that the basis of the search...

Thanks, y'all. I 'spect I'll go low-tech on this one and simply add Carl's magical UNIX result to the text file resulting from the Z-search. Brett Lamont...
Hey Mihai. The lax parameter is used to include/not include words at the beginning and end of your probability search that have the same probability of that...
Thanks, it is all clear now. I know how probability works; I was just puzzled by that parameter and why I get more words than I should :) Mihai ... at ... same...
My preference in the options has been for alphagram display of the racks. However, I tried to change the preference to Random and it doesn't seem to work for...

This Linux dabbler was wondering how possible or feasible it would be to get Zyzzyva up and running on a palmtop computer, like a Zaurus or a specially...

Michael, Again, thanks for the Cardbox feature. Outstanding. I'll reiterate a request I have for 1.0.3 or after. Any way to make the cardbox intervals...
