How to filter

  1. Put a letter in a numbered slot when you know that position.
  2. Type other letters the word must include. Order does not matter.
  3. Type letters to skip. A required letter can still appear where a rule needs it.
  4. Press Find words. The list also updates while you type.

Count repeated letters is on by default. A letter in a known slot and in Include must appear once more.
