Glosara to-do list

2017-02-15

Add --mode option to select "glossary" or "module".

The module mode creates a list of modules (files) that contain a list of entry names each.

2017-02-15

Add an option to link the glossary entry to the file it was extracted from.

2017-10-21

Make max-word-length configurable.

2017-11-19

Add an option to use a prefix for link anchors. This way different glossaries with homonims could be built apart and then combined into one single manual.

2018-04-17

Combine --annex with the planned --mode option.

2018-04-17

Check if it’s useful to create explicit links with --annex, or implicit links is enough.

2018-04-17

Enable several --output. Just change the current one.

2018-04-18

Check explicit links.

Idea: Run the conversion after parsing all options, instead of doing it in option (by calling input-file or input-option). Now the problem is the order matters, e.g. "--dir" only works if followed by "--input" or an input file. But the advantage of the current method is several inputs can be processed.

Change the location of preserve-double-backticks restore-double-backticks and finish-links in order to make lower level words independent, easier to test.

2020-05-12

In verbose mode, display the homonyms (entry name and source file).

Confirm this problem in Solo Forth:

This explicit link is ignored:

  \ | `<<src-lib-prog-editor-specforth-fs, b>>` ``( -- )``
  \ | Used after `<<src-lib-prog-editor-specforth-fs, f>>` to
  \ backup the cursor by the length of the most recent text.

But this way it works:

  \ | `<<src-lib-prog-editor-specforth-fs, b>>`
  \ ``( -- )``
  \ | Used after `<<src-lib-prog-editor-specforth-fs, f>>` to
  \ backup the cursor by the length of the most recent text.
