Hedae,

does anyone know any software that can be used to make a dictionary for a new conlang? 
for dictionary-maker i mean a software that includes the option of long and
complex definitions, bilingual comments and ethimology.

i founded a real good one in http://www.freelang.net/ but it doesn't have all
the option that i need.

i know that all can be done in a word or an excel software, or just gather all
information in a personnal book but... i hope all that work can be summarize in
a good software program!


for example:

Book | Ibrë [i.brë] (*i.br-), n., book; also known as faderën-ibrë
(paper-book); general definition for a book made from paper sheets, diferent
from viherë (or giirën-ibrë, wood-book) and from grarhë (or argën-ibrë, a
stone-book). {*ibrë, sitandellë; *yrb, urgim; *iébro, gandarã; hibere,
Lugehe}

English word | Sitandellë word [silabitizion] (ethimology root), grammatical classe,
definition and comments. {translation to the other sister-languages of
Sitandellë}.

do let me know if anyone knows a tool to help me make a dictionary for my conlang!


Yanasse,
