## the Letterpress Solver

In `plain.js`, all words are read into memory and processed. While `solver.js` used a Redis database to preprocess data and store results and works too.

## Requirements

1. node (`brew install node`)

2. redis (`brew install redis`, only needed for solver.js)

Only tested on MacOSX 10.8 

## Usage

### The Plain Version

A plain version to solve the board __without__ redis is also included. This is an interactive CLI, enter the board to solve and use `'/'` to filter the results.

	> node plain.js
