WinJumble -- an anagram finder and word unscrambler

What WinJumble Does
WinJumble accepts two through thirty-one
letters and finds all single English words (not phrases) that can be made
from them. WinJumble can help you:
- Find word anagrams (try senator and see what word
follows it in the list)
- Unscramble jumbled words (try aeiouqs)
"...all English words..." above is a slight exaggeration.
WinJumble knows about 376,000 English words. For comparison, the
average speaker uses about 500 words, the average writer uses about
5,000 words, the average reader knows about 50,000 words, and English
has a total of about 500,000 words.
The longest word WinJumble knows contains the letters
accddeeehhhhiiilllnnooooprrrtty. Try them in WinJumble to
see the longest word it knows.
