Hi all!

I have a problem that and I need to find a solution fast ... nothing new here ;-)

Ok, I have a master file (master.txt) that contains a huge list of words.

master.txt contains (small sample):
===========================
...
accumb
accumber
...

 

And I have an other file containing other words.
 

wordlist.txt contains (small sample):
===========================
...
accumbing
accumbed
reaccumb
overaccumb
foreaccumb
deaccumb
unaccumb
accumbe
accumbering
accumbered
reaccumber
overaccumber
foreaccumber
deaccumber
unaccumber
...

My job is to link each word in wordlist.txt with a word in master.txt.

So, out.txt should contain:
==============

...
accumb: accumbing, accumbed, reaccumb, overaccumb, foreaccumb, deaccumb, unaccumb, accumbe.
accumber: accumbering, accumbered, reaccumber, overaccumber, foreaccumber, deaccumber, unaccumber.
...

So that't the problem, I need help in making the association. I have to find the 'best' word to make the association with... is there an algorythm or a CPAN modules that can help me...

thanks,

Jean-Daniel
