Linux Dictionary


Can anyone give me a good brute force dictionary list? How can I associate it with Linux running on VMWare? Thanks

Do you mean "word list?" That would be valid words without definitions. Search your computer for files such as
Code:
/usr/share/dict/words
 .. or ..
/usr/dict/words
If you find it you may write a bash program which includes
Code:
WordList="/usr/share/dict/words"
From that point on, you can have all sorts of fun. Example:
Code:
# Find words which have the same letters in the first two columns."
# Examples: aardvark eerie
WordList="/usr/share/dict/words"
awk -F "" '$1==$2 {print}' $WordList >$OutFile
