I plead guilty.  I volunteered to do it over Thanksgiving, but didn't have
enough time.  (Other programming projects jumped the queue.)  I did get
an anagram generator working on the mac.  The interface uses the
THINK C console but it is fairly functional.  Unforutnately, "Ken Hancock"
doesn't have any interesting anagrams.  Thanks mom & dad :-(.

If there's interest, I'll send the "work in progress" off to info-mac
w/ source code.

Ken
