I happen to have written one. All the text on www.balvi.org is rendered through it. This filter reads texts, uses a database lookup and checks each word if it's a gismu, lujvo, or cmavo. If so, it turns it into a javascript link that, when clicked, opens a dictionary window showing the definition of that word. But I assume you've all seen this already, since I announced Balvi a month ago. ----- We do not like And if a cat those Rs and Ds, needed a hat?
