Zyzzyva 1.0.3

[boshvark]

I just released Zyzzyva 1.0.3. This is not the large update that will be coming in the (hopefully near) future. But it does have a couple of features, including a Collins lexicon and the Cardbox Shift feature. Many thanks to olaugh for the Collins lexicon! I've been using the Cardbox Shift feature quite a lot lately, since I've been too busy to study

Sorry, forgot the back slash a before. You can delete above post.

How about being able to study words by part of speech? I think I had suggested that before but I can't remember if that made any of the latest updates.

Also, since chaithedog recently commented about remembering all words that resemble each other, there should be some way to sort words by number of variants. Like knowing what the original spelling of GANEF is. If there was some way to sort words by definition, that would be one way, but I'm sure there are other solutions.

I am curious to just how many interjections exist. Probably fewer of any of the common parts of speech, and we know those don't typically take S, except for WAESUCK, CRIPE, etc..

No searching by part of speech yet, but it's on my to-do list. I don't think it will probably make it into 1.1, though. My time is awfully limited. :-)

I would also like to see word variants, which has been on my to-do list since day 1. Unfortunately that's also a bit complicated, so that probably won't make it into 1.1, either.

I always thought a good feature would be to be able to search definitions as well. Especially if you are trying to find types of cheeses, birds, etc.
