Uuuh. It was really late, yesterday. - I tried hard to make it clear, an
now I see that all I created was this german like moster sentence %)

- The file on stdin is a wordlist, i.e. /^[\w][-a-z]*$/
- Word has to have at least 10 characters.
- The following rules apply to only the first 10 characters:
* case is insignficant
* no duplicate letters
* each of the letters on the commandline appears once
