Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Content-Disposition: inline From: And Rosta John Leuner: #A few weeks ago I started writing a tool that would render lojban text #(in HTML or just text) and then hilight the words that were recognised #as gismu. 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? If this tool worked off-line too then it'd be a WONDERFUL tool -- I might actually start reading Lojban text again! I'm not competent to offer any help, but I hope this note offers encouragme= nt. --And.
