amenbo 5.0.1 — searching for a word answers faster

Searching for a word keeps you waiting less, and the more you have recorded the more it shows. What comes back is the same as in 5.0.0.

Searching for a word keeps you waiting less. What comes back is the same as in 5.0.0.

Searching for a word answers faster

This covers the amenbo search command, “Search” on screen, and narrowing the board. The wait used to grow as records piled up; it no longer does.

  • Short words show the biggest difference — a word of two characters or so was the slowest to come back.
  • What it matches is unchanged — the same word still lands on the same places, with the same folding of spelling differences and the same structural narrowing on top.

Getting it

Open the installer for your OS from the latest release. No admin rights are needed.

  • macOS — .pkg, one for Apple silicon and one for Intel (GUI and CLI come together; first open shows a Gatekeeper prompt: right-click → Open)
  • Windows — setup .exe (GUI and CLI come together)
  • Linux — the GUI is an AppImage; the amenbo command comes from the CLI installer

To update: on the GUI, the “a newer version is available” banner applies it in place. If you installed only the CLI, amenbo update --apply swaps it.
