What do I need?
3 Answers
When I compose a crossword clue I use a thesaurus to look for misleading synonyms. Unfortunately this involves re-reading many times words I have already rejected. For example Thesaurus.com has 64 entries containing the word "Answer". The 1500 words listed include 21 occurrences of "reply", 9 of "response" and so on. If such lists could be automatically condensed to one occurrence of each word, it would make my hobby easier.
Is there a program that would do this? If not, what would I need to write such a program myself? What language should I learn? My PC has Windows XP. My current skills are limited to some rusty Atari Basic, even rustier Locomail and Lessons 1-4 of the HMTL Goodies basic course.
Ease of learning and economical software would be of advantage.
