  • Seeing as Iā€™m a veteran of the IT industry, I use a LOT of acronyms, terms, abbreviations etc when I write content for others in order to provide assistance. I realised that this could well become overwhelming for some users whilst they trawl Google looking for what those abbreviations etc mean.

    Well, not any more šŸ™‚

    You can now hover over keywords, abbreviations, acronyms, and more, and itā€™ll give you an idea of what that term actually means or refers toā€¦

    Some examples below

    Hopefully, this prevents the head scratching, and having to spend time looking up terms I use šŸ˜†

    Great feature mate šŸ˜

    @jac Thanks

  • This feature is being expanded upon - hopefully, there will be quite a library of terms that others may or will find useful

    Iā€™m sure this will be helpful šŸ˜.

  • Just a small update here. We now have 1500+ keywords enabled šŸ™‚

  • Meh, this plugin is much ado ā€˜bout nothinā€™ from my perspective. Tossā€™s up too many off/erroneous glossary terms. Yeah, they may be correct. But the regexā€™s are matching greedily and flagginā€™ lots of other words that merely contain the respective target sequence.

    But that is just me. By all means please do continue to enjoy if it floats your boat. ā›µ

    @gotwf The REGEX match should not be greedy - for example, I have it configured so that it only executes on case-sensitive. Admittedly, it may be flagging other words, and may not be perfect, but itā€™s a WIP presently and beneficial to those joining who may not be familiar with the abbreviations or acronyms I frequently use.
