       an - Anagram generator

-w,--words
              Print words that the letters in PHRASE can make, then exit.

       -c,--containstring
              Only print anagrams which contain string.

       -d,--dictdictionary
              Use dictionary file to find words which the letters in PHRASE can make.

       -m,--minimumword_length
              Only include word which are at least word_length long.

       -u,--usedstring
              Considers that letters in string have  already  used  when  analyzing  letters  in  PHRASE.   Like
              --contain but doesn't print out string.

       -l,--lengthnumber_words
              Finds  anagrams  which  have  a  maximum  of number_words words in them.  This is very useful when
              number of anagrams which are output is large.

       -n,--numbernumber_anagrams
              Stops after finding number_anagrams anagrams.

       -h,--help
              Print a usage message on standard output, then exit.

       -v,--version
              Print version information on standard output, then exit.
