Thanks Bartosz. I've never heard of that program, but it seems interesting
and certainly fast enough. I suppose so long as the word generation
software is going as fast as or faster than JTR, then everything will be
OK performance-wise. I can just imagine cases where doing certain complex
word mangling might be the bottleneck.
