PHPDictionary 3.0 -

PHPDictionary has taken a gigantic leap since its original release. Not only is it now programmed by a team as opposed to an individual, the entire layout and organization of the code has been restructured. Among the new features are: a Multi-User Login (MUL) system, a word generator, a phrasebook, a text tool, and an all-new user interface.

The MUL is a powerful system capable of anything anyone might wish for. It has a 4 level user tier -- the top level, administrator, can add and delete users and dictionaries. The level below that can work on a dictionary, and add users to that dictionary but cannot delete users or add new dictionarys. The level below that can work on a dictionary, but cannot effect user membership at all. The level below that is a guest, someone who is not logged in and cannot administrate a dictionary. Because of this MUL, multiple different dictionaries can created and managed by different levels of members, with only one installation of the script.

The Word Generator will randomly generate words from a phonology you create through the Phonology Creator, which is stored inside the database. It will then allow you to automatically add one of the generated words to your dictionary. This is a whole new leap in dictionary management. Instead of creating a word, or generating a word, and then having to copy it into your dictionary, PHPDictionary does all the work for you!

You may now also manage a phrasebook, and add texts. A Babel-Text tool allows you to add a Babel Text without having to type up the English version. You may also add custom texts.

The search tool is more and more powerful -- now searching by English word/phrase/text, Conlang word/phrase/text, word type, and word root. You may also sort words in any way -- By root and then English, or by root and then Conlang, type, etc.

A GUI, created by one of the team members utilizing a JavaScript menu, makes it easy to navigate and understand. Optional free registration is included, if you wish to let the team know you are using the script.

This script is the ultimate in online (or offline) dictionary management.

All versions of PHPDictionary are released under a CreativeCommons liscence. View the website for more details.

PHPWordGen - An online word generator, which is highly customisable.

Planetary Creation and Linguistic Database (PCALD) - I am about to release a new planetary creation software application called WorldCreator. It is presently not backward compatible with PCALD, but if there are any out there who have done a lot of work with PCALD, I would be interested in making WorldCreator backward compatible with PCALD. Please email me at fractalconfusion (gmail.com) if you want me to make WorldCreator compatible with PCALD.
