(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.
