Console-based Wordle Implementation

This implementation can solve wordle puzzles or let you play wordle puzzles.

I'm not distributing a word list as I don't know that I have license to do so. The game uses two word lists:

• all.txt for all the valid words
• play.txt for a list of words to randomly select from as the target word

Usage

The application runs in one of three modes and has configurable letter view and computer search strategy.

Key bindings:

• Enter - Submit word
• Backspace - Delete last input
• ? - Ask computer to select a word
• CtrlC - Quit

Solve mode bindings:

• B - Mark a letter black - This letter is not in the target word
• Y - Mark a letter yellow - This letter is in the target word, but not at this location
• G - Mark a letter green - This letter is correct for this location

Usage: wordle [FLAGS] MODE

Modes:
    solve - Program guesses a secret word, reply with 'b' 'y' 'g'
    play  - Program picks a random word, type in your guess words
    give  - User types in the secret words, then types in guess words
