TheMemer
A downloadable tool for Windows and Linux
TheMemer is a program that performs a dictionary brute-force on a provided input string.
This program was made for fun and with no ill-intentions. The main goal is to create a program capable of being able to provide guesses for the theme of the annual GMC Jam.
How does it work?
TheMemer asks for a dictionary you wish to use, this is a text file with a list of words to filter through. It then asks for the input theme, typically the theme guess is something along the lines of ( ? ? E / ? I ? / ? A ? T Y )
The default input is "apple" to avoid errors from someone skipping through the two window popups.
TheMemer then sanitizes the input by making it all lower case and removing spaces.
It then opens the text file and pulls a string and compares it to the input string.
If it comes across an ? it simply skips over it keeping the current string it's pulled in mind for a possible guess depending on if it contains the letters that are confirmed.
When it is finished It will pop up a message that it is finished, then open the local file in the default browser to show you the output of guesses!
or it will simply say it failed to come up with any ideas.
Can I contribute?
- Of course! The best things you can do are:
- Try to guess strings and note outputs that act funny (Ie: it never finishes, it provides glitched text)
- Provide Good dictionaries to add to the project!
- Send me bug reports!
Current todo, bugs & issues
- TheMemer can only handle one word ciphers, looking into getting it to guess sentences
- HTML5 Export
- add cool text log as its only debug messages
Can I use this?
Sure! I take no responsibly of what you do with it!
