  8. Description:
  9.    - This script demonstrates "Chapter 3: Practice Project #7: Finding Voldemort: The British Brute-Force" from the book "Impractical Python Projects" by Lee Vaughan.
  10.    - It aims to find possible names that can be formed from the letters in "tmvoordle" using various filters such as consonant-vowel patterns, trigrams, and letter pairs.
  11.    - The script downloads a dictionary file containing English words from a URL and saves it alphabetically.
  12.    - It also downloads a trigrams file and saves it for later use.
  13.    
  14. Requirements:
  15.    - Python 3.x
  16.    - The following modules
  17.        - os
  18.        - sys
  19.        - requests
  20.        - itertools (specifically the permutations function)
  21.        - collections (specifically the counter function)
  22.  
  23. Functions:
  24.    - main():
  25.        - Executes the main functionality of the script.
  26.    - download_dictionary(url, file_name):
  27.        - Download a dictionary file from a URL and save it alphabetically.
  28.    - load_dictionary(file):
  29.        - Open a text file & turn contents into a set of lowercase strings.
  30.    - download_trigrams_file(url, filename):
  31.        - Download a trigrams file from a URL and save it.
  32.    - prep_words(name, word_list_ini):
  33.        - Filter words from the initial word list based on the length.
  34.    - cv_map_words(word_list):
  35.        - Map words from the word list to their consonant-vowel patterns.
  36.    - cv_map_filter(name, filtered_cv_map):
  37.        - Filter words based on consonant-vowel patterns.
  38.    - trigram_filter(filter_1, trigrams_filtered):
  39.        - Filter words based on trigrams.
  40.    - letter_pair_filter(filter_2):
  41.        - Filter words based on letter pairs.
  42.    - view_by_letter(name, filter_3):
  43.        - Display filtered words based on the starting letter provided by the user.
  44.    
  45. Usage:
  46.    - Run the script directly in a Python 3.x environment:
  47.            
  48.            $ python ipp7_0_voldemort_british.py
  49.    
  50. Additional Notes:
  51.    - The script uses various filtering techniques to narrow down the list of possible names that can be formed from the given set of letters.
  52.    - It prompts the user to input a starting letter or press Enter to see all possible names.
