Simple command line Wordle solver. Use only when terminally frustrated!
Usage;
wordle green_pattern black_letters yellow_patterns...
green_pattern = 5 letter known pattern, lower case letters and ?s
black_letters = letters known to be excluded, '-' to omit
yellow_patterns = 5 letter patterns, lower case letters and ?s
For example;
You know o is the middle letter, you know e,l,i,a,n and r aren't
included. You know s and t are included, but t can't be the second
letter and s can't be the first, second or last letter. Run this
command;
wordle ??o?? elianr st??s ?s???
Prints 'boost', 'coost', 'ghost', 'moost' and 'toosh'. The large word
list, courtesy of https://github.com/dwyl/english-words (thank you)
includes many strange words, use your judgement!
Thanks to https://github.com/dwyl/english-words for the unaltered word list (which is now baked in, no external file needed).
Thanks to Josh at powerlanguage.co.uk for creating Wordle.
I have included a Windows executable in the release directory. If it doesn't work on your system I blame Microsoft for overcomplicating things, it used to be easy to share simple executables!
