Very nice program! I love scrabble and this is a great single player alternative!
Where did you get the word database from, and would it be hard to implement other languages (not changing the scoring rules)?

Can you implement an easy mode in which more than 8 cards are displayed? This will be nice for us non-native speakers.

I found the word list on the github repo. But I wondered more specifically where you found all of them as I guess you didn't type it all in
SPOILER ALERT:
https://raw.github.com/Slocan/Wordsl...feb/words.dict
Also, I take it the program is GPL v2 (or later), even though your copyright file is a bit empty still?

@Timus: I think 8 letters is quite enough. I am not a native speaker either :-)
@barzam: Actually, you found an old list, the current one is:
https://raw.github.com/Slocan/Wordsl.../wordlist2.txt
I've found similar issues with it than the ones you reported, but haven't yet found a better one.
As for license, I guess it would be under the GPL... This stuff makes my head hurt

Personally I think GPL is a good choice, that's been around for a long time and have been tried in several European courts and found valid.
Would it be possible you think for Wordsler to read words from the phone's own dictionary? That would perhaps be an easy way to use other languages in the game?

How about a random button that jumbles the existing letters? (for both games). Sometimes letters in a different order present themselves better.
