Updated: vocabulary trainer for Windows

["seidensticker" <seidensticker@msn.com>]

An version 1.1 of the vocabulary trainer for Windows is available.  (If
you're asking, "_What_ vocabulary trainer?", see message #5718 [March 5] for
a summary of features.)

New features:
  * Dictionary Help with Phrases.  Type several words?a phrase or
sentence?into the Dictionary edit box and click on any word to get its
definition.  This makes understanding the words in a long sentence much
faster.
  * Lujvo and Cmavo Breakup.  Any word not found in the dictionary will be
checked to see if it is a lujvo (compound word).  If it is, the words that
make it up are shown and defined.  A compound cmavo can also be defined.
  * More Vocabulary.  The number of vocabulary groups and number of words
have both been more than doubled.
  * Faster Vocabulary Creation.  It's easier to make your own vocabulary
groups.  Simply by list the Lojban words in the vocabulary file loj.txt.
The full definition will be filled in automatically.
  * Print to File.  A group of definitions can now be sent to a file instead
of a printer.  A word processor can edit this .rtf file and do things not
possible before, including customizing the formatting, combining or deleting
entries, sending it to different printers, or emailing it.
  * Oops Button.  The correct/incorrect state of the previous question can
be changed.  If your previous answer was interpreted incorrectly, you can
fix it.
  * Cancel Button.  The extended dictionary search can take several
seconds?not long but still unwelcome when done unnecessarily.  A Cancel
button is now available.

The help is pretty thorough, so check it out when features aren't obvious.

To download, go to www.hobbiton.org/~biomass/lojban and download
voctrain2.zip.  It should also soon be at
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/lojban/files (look for a created date of
03/17/2001 or later).

Let me know about bugs and ideas for additional features.
