This page describes a multiword anagram generator.

It doesn't test two strings to see if they are anagrams of each other; it accepts a word or phrase, and generates all the anagrams it can see for that word or phrase.

It also makes no effort to find anagrams that make sense - all possible word lists are output, irrespective of grammar or meaning.

Here's some example output:

  1. $ ./anagrams ska
    ask
    
  2. $ ./anagrams the eyes

    eh es yet
    eh se yet
    eh ty see
