English Word Database
I'm just looking for a good English word database. If you know of a fairly complete one please provide a link. It must be formatted, or easily formattable, for use as an input file.
uh, wordnet? http://wordnet.princeton.edu/wordnet/ Their binaries are old, but they update the database all the time from what it seems... Brought to you by the nearest search engine.
I don't think that's what I want. I'm not looking for binaries. I'm looking for a list, with only the words, to use as an input file in programs.
Like this:
a aardvark aardwolf...

Well, they do have the files also, not just the binaries. The easiest one to look at is
http://wordnetcode.princeton.edu/standoff-files/core-wordnet.txt
Others:
A lot to sift through, but there are a lot of words (the readme files tell the structure)
http://wordlist.sourceforge.net/
If you just need a list of words just to print out:

Thank you for your help. I think these will be good for now. I'll test it with a program to find anagrams.
