Well, the script from Johhny Dangerously is safe: farging icehole corksucker fork you
All went thru just fine... ;) Will, I don't think anybody's saying this is a bad idea, and I was more'n glad to help out. I think it's a great idea and when it's in a stable version I think you should put it up on cflib.org to be used by the community... I think, from a technical perspective, you should use a webservice or a URL like someone posted here to obtain your list of so-called "dirty words" (very funny, Isaac... heh.) It's important to remember that the bigger your library of words, the longer your script will take to execute, though... hence the reason that Isaac recommended a slightly more heuristic approach (i.e. pattern matching on a single string rather than using a word-by-word loop like you have here). That's why I recommended using a comparison via one loop over the library rather than a word-by-word loop over the entire field and then subloops over the various word categories... But it's a work in progress and a learning tool for you, and I REALLY recommend you stick with it and gain all the understanding you can from it. And pester Isaac about regexes... he needs the practice! :P Anyway... it seems to nicely catch any word tossed into the dictionary. I would be interested to know how long it takes to test a 2000 word document with a reasonably populated dirty-word dictionary... there's your next assignment, Jedi Novice Tomlinson. ;) Laterz!
