Made Up Words v0.19.0 — Homograph (multi-sense) entries

A focused release resolving #11: words with several unrelated meanings
(homographs) can now be created and managed properly.

Added

  • Homograph (multi-sense) entry creation. If a made-up word means both
    "to walk" and "guitar", you can now store each sense as its own entry. Two
    files can't share a name, so each sense lives in its own file (e.g.
    kala (verb).md, kala (noun).md) that declares the shared spelling via the
    word: frontmatter override. All add-word paths — the add-a-word modal,
    create-from-selection, batch creation, and add-a-name — detect when a word
    already exists with a different meaning and create a new
    word (partOfSpeech).md sense file automatically, instead of silently
    opening the existing entry. Re-adding an existing meaning still just opens
    the existing entry. Hovering a homograph shows every sense in one tooltip.
    (#11)

Changed

  • README: the word: frontmatter override is now documented as the recipe
    for multi-sense entries, with a worked example. It was previously described
    as phrase-only, leaving no documented way to create two entries with the same
    spelling. (#11)
