That mod is definitely
not supposed to be installed on *this* forum. EanaEltu is also a "hacked" forum software, just because one does not have to create a permission, login, or session system too, only the part for the dictionary have to be done. I just took SMF because I mostly understand how it works. EE forum is based on Perl and I know absolutely nothing about about Perl.
LaTeX is interresting and on some things very powerful (I actually use it for creating a new Na'vi reference (Horen amuve). It works well, but for example TeXStudio is showing errors about font faces because of the IPA stuff and I had difficulties with \href{}{} because it still used T1 or OT1 coding. I "fixed" an apostrophe by writing \%E2\%80\%99 ...this is not what I really want to deal with links that has non ASII signs. O___o
There should be a "database that rule them all", that could be the origin for all other dbs, also for a version with
LaTeX to generates the PDF (which has to keep its current form for various reasons, btw). Kop, I (and some other people for sure) would really love to get that dictionary automated that Plumps has created. And finally, what let wish to add is also a kind of word management system for the LEP because I fear that the LEP word list is becomming more and more complicated and bigger.
I am not sure what do you mean with "develop some prototypes", but if you consider to create such a system, I'll let you know that there was a group in the past that planned to create someng like that, but stopped further development. I would suggest to team up and develop such a system together because I doubt that one single person can just create such a thing (I am not saying that it is impossible, btw

) So, some of us have Githup and stuff... ...shall we create a new thread about it?
