It can be used to play\r\n[Scrabble](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scrabble) (the original 15x15 grid),\r\n[Super Scrabble](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Super_Scrabble) (the official 21x21 extended grid),\r\n[Literati](http://internetgames.about.com/library/weekly/aa120802a.htm) (an old Yahoo! Games 15x15 grid, from which **Games::Literati** derives its name), and\r\n[Words With Friends](https://www.zynga.com/games/words-friends) (a newer 15x15 grid).\r\nBy overriding or extending the package, one could implement other similar letter-tile grids,\r\nwith customizable bonus placements.\r\n\r\nTo use this module to play the games, a one-liner such as the\r\nfollowing can be used:\r\n\r\n        perl -MGames::Literati=literati -e \"literati();\"\r\n\r\n(This will only work if \\``./wordlist`' is in the current directory.  Otherwise,\r\nsee [\"PUBLIC VARIABLES\"](#public-variables), below.)\r\n\r\nEnter the data prompted then the best 10 solutions will be displayed.\r\n\r\n# AUTHOR\r\n\r\nChicheng Zhang `\u003cchichengzhang AT hotmail.com\u003e` wrote the original code.\r\n\r\nPeter C.
