Who would have believed that Jiri could shave any more off, but he
managed to. But it's Pete Lomax that has broken the 9-second barrier.

Awesome! I finally got my code (mostly) correct. I wonder what I'm still doing
wrong on the dictionary... Hmm.
Well, I started revising again before my last submission's paint had dried, so I
think I will submit one more. Once I've tested and debugged it, that is.

I suspect you are not correctly dealing with top frequence tokens that
have the same frequence count . This is what your program gives ...
01 WORLDS 2
02 ZYMURGY 1
and this is what it should give...
01 ANIMALS 2
02 APPLICATIONS 2
03 AUTHORS 2
04 BANKS 2
05 BASICS 2
06 BOARDS 2
07 CALCULATORS 2
08 CALLERS 2
09 CANT 2
10 CATS 2
11 CHARACTERS 2
12 CHIPS 2
13 COMPILERS 2
14 COMPUTERS 2
15 COOKIES 2
16 DART 2
17 DAYS 2
18 DEFINES 2
19 DESKTOPS 2
20 DISKETTES 2

Oh.
I guess that I have to re-read the rules again. I thought that it wasn't
supposed to print out duplicates, of length frequencies OR of word frequencies.
That's easy to fix. Thanks again!
