If I'm getting this (and I'm not sure that I am) there was a
a module/article in the last but one or two TPJ
about the perl frontend to somebody's extensive language
dictionary/thesaurus (sp?) project.
The idea was you could ask for, say, red monkey info and get
baboon, great ape, etc. as the 'database' was able to know
that each is a monkey. It was far better than that and, the
perl part made it extendable (the linquist researchers who
created the original didn't appear to want any help extending
their db). If only I could remember a detail ...

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
