Hi Ken,

I installed /usr/share/dict/words this way:

# cd  ~/Downloads

# wget ftp://fr2.rpmfind.net/linux/fedora/releases/11/Everything
    /i386/os/Packages/words-3.0-15.fc11.noarch.rpm

# rpm2cpio words-3.0-15.fc11.noarch.rpm | (cd /; cpio -idmv)

# chmod 755 /usr/share/dict/

The rpm2cpio.exe utility is contained within cygwin's 'rpm' package; 
you'll need to install that first.

Allen
