Hi, most of this is shorthand for either several functions or functions with longer names. For example, [rs:10;\s] is the same as [rep:10][sep:\s].

The last example is used to synchronize results between dictionary queries. This particular one is short for "output the same word as any other query to this table with the match ID 'a'."

In retrospect it was a poor decision to use shorthand forms in prominent example snippets, and I'll consider revising them.

Fixed. Thanks for pointing it out.

Rant dev here-- Wow! This has to be the most interesting use case I've heard of in a while.

The modifiers are abundant. Also try the "dog", "alien", "old", "dark", and "rotten" varieties. That's just scratching the surface.

Those modifiers work on any other base colors, as well. They even stack. Want "old dog shit"? I have just what you need.

Thanks, this is really helpful. Looks like I'll be adding a lot of new filters.

It's not just a simple color mixer; it's actually a "filter compositing engine". I write rules for each keyword by hand, currently. It gives me more control over how different words affect the final color.

(I'll add a rule for dried blood)

This was actually the inspiration for the project.

Great idea. I only speak English and (some) German, but I'll see what I can do to accommodate color names in other popular languages.

That was the plan at first, but I wanted even oddly specific requests to return something somewhat reasonable, so I went with a word analysis method that associates certain words with filters that are added from right to left.

Not nearly as neat or all-encompassing as something like what you describe, but it does allow me a bit more control over how different words affect the output.

That's a cool idea, though I don't know any search engine APIs that don't have a ton of restrictions on them. Google used to have a wonderful image search API, but it's either deprecated/discontinued by now.

I'll keep looking around, though.

Added.

I've never heard that word before in my life. Will add!
