Mulvoc created by John C G Sturdy, and is hosted on Sourceforge.
Each mulvoc vocabulary file must start with a header line which names
the columns. Most of the columns have language names, given as
three-letter codes in upper case; See Language names. There should
also be a column for the type of word (the “part of speech”), which
is labelled #TYPE.
There may also be a column labelled #SENSE which indicates the
sense of the word, as some words have more than one meaning in the
same language.
If you use the #SENSE column, you should use it consistently,
as it is used in matching up parts of the same meaning.
There can also be a row labelled (in the #TYPE column) as
#LANGUAGENAME, to specify the human readable language name.
If you want to be able to edit vocabulary files conveniently using
mulvoc, then should be a row whose #TYPE field is
#INPUT-METHODS, and whose data cells are suitable for giving to
Emacs' input method selection commands.
