I find myself going back to the New Words list on the KLI's site over a=
nd over, so I decided to write a tool that presents the list to me without =
having to go to the site.<br>
<br>
It's written in PowerShell, and will run on any Windows 8 or later comp=
uter, or Windows 7 if you install Windows Management Framework 3.0 or later=
.<br>
<br>
It's got a README.txt file in it; setup instructions are there. Short v=
ersion: extract everything to a folder, then run install.cmd. For anyone wh=
o knows about PowerShell modules: just copy the Klingon folder to your Powe=
rShell Modules folder.<br>
<br>
It's a PowerShell module, so I mostly use it in the PowerShell console =
(a command-line environment). I've also created a GUI version for anyon=
e who prefers that.<br>
<br>
Available commands:<br>
<br>
Get-KlingonWord<br>
=C2=A0 =C2=A0 Return a list of words, their meanings, parts of speech, and =
sources. You can filter by any of these fields.<br>
<br>
Show-KlingonWord<br>
=C2=A0 =C2=A0 Same as Get-KlingonWord, except the list is presented in a GU=
I. Has a built-in alias, kword.<br>
<br>
Sort-KlingonWord<br>
=C2=A0 =C2=A0 Given the results from Get-KlingonWord or Show-KlingonWord, o=
r a comma-separated list of strings, this sorts the list in Klingon transcr=
iption alphabetical order. This command allows piped input.<br>
<br>
Update-KlingonWord<br>
=C2=A0 =C2=A0 Updates the word list by downloading whatever is current at t=
he KLI. This must be run at least once before using the module; the setup p=
rogram runs this for you.<br>
<br>
For help on each command, type "help <command>" in PowerShe=
ll.<br>
<br>
You can easily filter in the GUI just by typing in the filter field, or you=
can set up more complicated pattern-matching.<br>
<br>
Careful! PowerShell interprets the ' character as a string delimiter, s=
o if you type words with glottal stops you'll cause errors. Enclose the=
words in double quotation marks to avoid this, or escape the ' with a =
backtick, `.<br>
<br>
I won't be incorporating words not on the New Words list. This module d=
oesn't contain any data by itself; it just downloads what's at the =
KLI.<br>
<br>
You can download this module here: <a href=3D"http://trimboli.name/Klingon.=
zip" rel=3D"noreferrer" target=3D"_blank">http://trimboli.name/Klingon.zip<=
