Update to Acrobot

There’s been a bit of an update to Acrobot - the tool now has categories of acronyms that you can choose from. If you are a registered member, you can log in and add your own acronyms and abbreviations (or edit existing entries).

The tool still needs some extra work. Currently there is no duplication of acronyms/abbreviations, but if you do add a new one that conflicts with an existing entry, both will be accepted on the database, but when running a conversion, only the first entry will be used. This is on the ‘to-do’ list, folks!

I was also asked if I could provide the list in a machine-readable format. This is sort of answered here - a comma separated list. You’ll still need to copy and paste for the moment (unless someone can tell me how I can use an ASP variable to generate a separate .csv file on the server using ASP classic, not Dot Net).
