7.5 Wildcard searching

You can type an asterisk ʻ*ʼ in place of a series of unknown letters, at the
start, middle or end of a word. This will enable you to find all words starting,
containing or ending with that letter match. For example, to find all words
ending with ʻtionʼ, type *tion and press ENTER.
To find all words starting with ʻbreʼ , type bre* and press ENTER.
To find all words starting with ʻbʼ and ending with ʻtionʼ, type ʻb*tionʼ and press
ENTER.
The crossword feature can also be used in a similar way. To find all 9-letter
words ending with ʻtionʼ, type ?????tion and press ENTER.

7.6 Anagram Function

After you have spellchecked a word, you can look to see if there are any
anagrams for this word (for example, ʻdogʼ is an anagram of ʻgodʼ). To look
for anagrams, press and hold SHIFT (
) and press ʻ?ʼ simultaneously. The
display will show Finding anagrams and then show anagrams if available.
Press the down arrow key to scroll the list of anagrams.
