Rime

====

Small command line interface to find rhymes. These are found using two French dictionaries:

- `data/dict.dat`: a dictionary of words and their phonetic equivalent

- `data/syl.dat`: a dictionary of syllables and their phonetic equivalent

Install

-------

```sh

$ git clone https://github.com/sunny/rimes

$ cd rimes

```

Usage

-----

```sh

$ bin/rime cho

artichaut (arti/o)

poncho (pôt/o)

réchaud (ré/o)

bouchot (bu/o)

manchot (mâ/o)

```

Adding a syllable

-----------------

If a syllable doesn't exist, for example:

```sh

$ bin/rime

No phonetic found for 'cha' (bin/rime --add-syllable cha phonetic)

```

You can add it if you know the phonetic syntax:

```sh

$ bin/rime --add-syllable cha /a

```

Adding a word

-------------

If a word doesn't come up and you know the phonetic syntax, you can add it:

```sh

$ bin/rime --add-word chat /a

```
