I am hereby releasing my program, Anagrams.

It does just what the name suggests. It finds all of the words that can be made out of the letters of a word the user enters.
(It's cool, I promise :p)

I started writing this after I tried to find all of the anagrams of the word "planets" (There are a lot!) I gave up and wrote this to help me do it.

It's written in Perl (Boo-yea!) Unfortunately, I have yet to find a good way to compile Perl programs into executables, so at this point I can only release the source-code. (Sorry Perl-less people. If anyone can help me find a way to compile this, I'd be much obliged!)

So yeah.
Comments? Bugs? Fixes for another version?

[Edit] Oops, I thought I was in the Showcase forum when I posted this, so I know it should really be in there.
:P

whats those cool things that "angels and demons" uses to turn the words upside down and its the same thing, those anagrams are way cooler.

Yeah, but those aren't anagrams...

It's an online version of the Official Scrabble PLayer's dictionary.

I found it online (there are many versions) at puzzlers.org.
