WORDLE
Guess the WORDLE in 6 tries.
Each guess must be a valid 5 letter word. Hit the enter button to submit.
After each guess, the color of the tiles will change to show how close your guess was.
The idea is borrowed from https://www.powerlanguage.co.uk/wordle

Hmm, apparently the algorithm which I have implemented is slightly different from the one used in the original game, that will be fixed in 1.0.1.

Do you mean UI translation or the dictionary? Yes, you can help with both, if you like.
UI translations are here.
The dictionaries are here. Those get installed to
/usr/share/harbour-wordle/datadirectory on the device. The program scans that directory at startup and populates the list of languages, meaning that you don't even have to recompile the app in order to test your language. Just creating/usr/share/harbour-wordle/data/czdirectory on the device and copying files there would do the trick.To make a dictionary, you basically need two lists of 5-letter words. One (called words) contains the words to be guessed, and the second one (xwords) is the list of the additional words that can be used for checking. The first list should contain proper, respectable words which are expected be used in public writing, literature etc. The second one allows jargonism, slang, even swearing (why not?).
I'll push the tool which I used for preparing the dictionaries. That tool converts input into a single byte encoding if necessary (e.g. utf-8 => windows-1250), removes spaces, sorts the words, removes duplicates and writes the words (or xwords) file in the form expected by the program. It's done in a slightly complicated way in order to optimize word search at run time (straight mmap + binary search).
There's also language.json but that's the most trivial part. Its format is obvious.

Hejo! One question. Is this the large set or the small wordset? Thanks!

For English it's 2315 words to guess + 10657 additional words that can be used for checking. Those have been pulled out of the original source (i.e. the JS file which the browser loads from the website mentioned in the description).

Thanks. I'll build a German one if no one beats me to it.
AND I wanted to ask if it would be possible to make a larger one?
AND, I wanted, since I think in English first but often in German to make a mixed file. I'll see if I can come up with an example, but it only makes sense if I can use a larger dictrionary!
AND, sorry, German has capitalizes Nouns. I have a list at the moment with capitals. Should this all go lowercase?
Thanks for the great App!!!
