The maf (multi-word anagram finder) program finds all the words that can be formed by using the characters in the source_string argument. When a set of words which uses all the characters in the source string is found, the set is printed on stdout.
file
Use the named UNIX dictionary file as the basis for searching for anagrams. This is the default command line option, and assumes a UNIX dictionary file called "words" is available in the current working directory.
file
Use the named BTree dictionary file as the basis for searching for anagrams. Using this option will cause an error, unless BTree support has been compiled into maf.
Display single-word anagrams only. The default is to display multi-word and single-word anagrams.
Causes maf to issue a diagnostic trace. Not useful for normal usage.
