Adding crossword words #130

Open jmonty42 opened 2 years ago

This adds about 113k words to words_alpha.txt from the CROSSWD.TXT and CRSWD-D.TXT files from Moby Words II, which is referenced somewhere in this project. I found a couple oddly common words missing from words_alpha.txt and submitted PR's to add ones I noticed, so I decided to pull in those lists to get something more complete.

After combining the lists, I scanned through it manually with vimdiff to get an idea of what got added. Feel free to do the same and let me know if this is ok.

Ya, if you're familiar with vim, you can use vimdiff after you check out the branch locally to review it, that's what I did before I pushed it. There are lots of other diff clients you could use once you pull it down, too.
