    I knew the punchline before even starting! Impressive number of theme entries throughout the grid (do I detect a Qat usage?). Shame about unchecked cells and 2-letter entries, but I understand that feeling of wanting to completely fill a grid with an idea!

      Qat?
      • kieranjboyd 馃3:27聽路聽2022-12-15T19:59:32.476Z
        Qat's an online tool for searching dictionaries based on more complicated queries. Here's one based on your constraint, assuming a 4-letter grid entry and using the default dictionary (I think you got them all, except for (TRES)PASS).

          Oh cool! Yeah, Trespass was the one that got away. Thanks for the link!
