The two urls given in the names.txt file:
http://spitfire.ausys.se/johan/names/rules.zip
http://spitfire.ausys.se/johan/workshop/
aren't active links.
I have a program that does the same (and more) on my website, www.poromenos.org. It's on downloads, it's called WordGen.
Thanks, I've put a note in that file for future versions. I'm sure I had downloaded his files from his site before it became non-functional.
I wonder what the ethics of making them available are? I don't like to take other people's work, however if he has no objection, then I could post them here so the work is not lost, with suitable attribution.
If anyone knows how to get in touch with the original author, maybe they can let me or him know.
My program does the exact same thing and it's free.
Well you could always use archive.org to get the site from the past:

But I don't see his email anywhere there.
From Zeno's web.archive.org url I got the rules.zip file and the dozens of .nam files that were in there. I can't tell - is the commenting in all the .nam files in portugese? If it is it must be some dialect I don't recognise or never learned :O.

^For the lazy :)
Anyway, I imagine that whoever this is - he wouldn't mind if you made the files availible here.
It's not Portugese - it seems to be a nordic language, such as Danish, Norwegian, Swedish. Doesn't look like Finnish, though. Couldn't tell you much more than that though. :)
So what's wrong with my program? By the way, .se is Sweden.
MUSHclient recognises these delimiters:
[start] OR [startstav]
[middle] OR [mittstav]
[end] OR [slutstav]
[stop]
The non-English word recognition was put there to be compatible with the existing files, I'm not sure what language they are.
