Add support for long words

[duot]

Hi there,

I want to address this issue and add support for long words.

It goes into an infinite loop when given a file with exclusively long words (length > 8). Link to line. This issue may also occur for files all filled with single chars or containing non-ASCII chars.

Replicate:

cat /usr/share/dict/words | awk 'length($0) >= 9' | head -n 5 > long-words
toipe -f long-words

At the least, it shouldn't hang. I don't know how best to handle this yet.

To support long words would you want to add a config (instead of this)? Or remove this check if the source is a custom word list file?

That sounds good. This check was only added because some OS wordlists have huge words that make typing harder.

Also, I'm working on a better word selector that should fix many long standing issues and will be more configurable (at least it shouldn't hang!)
