[GD-General] chat filter

[Ray <ra...@gu...>]

Hi,
I am working on a simple chat filter for our network game.
Are there any drop-in chat filters available?
How does everyone else deal with chat filtering?

I had thought of having a list of words and then strstr() for each one in my message I want filtered,
That would be kinda slow though if the filter list was big.

I had also thought of a dictionary tree to store the filter words and then send the message i want filtered through the 
dictionary, starting with each successive character in the msg.

Am I missing something or does anyone have any better ideas?
