Checks input string for a given file with dictionary words and outputs those which are present in string + their positions.

I.e. default_string in find_words.py for given slangs.txt outputs output.txt.

3 arguments are possible, but optional:

• --input – input string provided from image, default: wałpzwpowodzoadinisttojewódzkizarządmelioracjiiurządzeńwodnywrocławulmatejki5aazrozkopywaniawbijanisszkadzaadarninyiinnychnpodstaapaez

• --dict – file with dictionary words, default: resources/slangs.txt

• --out – output file, default: resources/output.txt

If dictionary file is not present, then it uses polish_slang_crawler script to fetch words. The script can we modified to use different source.

Use output file to find the most suitable phrase and modify the image manually.

Manual image modification is not required with this one.
