@stronglang @stancarey
Hello from a UK editor and indexer (and swearer). Good to see you here. I’m a big fan of a sweary book index too, when appropriate (both reading and writing them).
@pc_bain Hooray for sweary book indexes! I'm guessing you mean sweary [book index] rather than [sweary book] index – though there would be some overlap
@stronglang
Ha, yes, not recommended to do a sweary index for a non-sweary book, although tempting sometimes.
@stronglang I have some family members that I try not to curse around, but with limited success I curse like a sailor, so to speak @stancarey
@stancarey appropriate that FUBAR and other such terms are military jargon! @stronglang
