You can then put your mouse on each gismu to see the definition. The idea was to make it easier to learn lojban by reading texts on the net and on the mailing list with a near instantaneous dictionary lookup. I got pretty far with it, and then gave up in frustration with Swing's scroll components. My long term plans were to integrate it with something like jbohife, so that computer analysis of lojban text would be easily at hand for anything you could find on the web. I'm not sure if I'll carry on with the project. Maybe there is someone with experience writing text renderers here who would like to help out? John Leuner --
