Words in file has no order and can be duplicades:

  --outfile outfile

Words in file has no order and can be duplicades:

cat palabras_todas.txt | grep -v '.*-$' | grep -v ^- | sort | uniq > 0_palabras_todas.txt

Classify words by their length

The 0_palabras_todas.txt file is needed.

Inside the diccionario-espanol-txt folder and running the length.sh file will create the length folder with the words classified by its length.

bash src/length.sh

Classify words by their first letter

The 0_palabras_todas.txt file is needed.

Due to the lack of palabras_todas.txt file (creating it will last so many hours) the spliter.sh file will not work. So this script works with the 0_palabras_todas.txt file.

Inside the diccionario-espanol-txt folder and running the starting_letter.sh file will create the starting_letter folder with the words classified by the first letter.

bash src/starting_letter.sh
