A JavaFx 8 Application for generating numeronyms for any given string.
This application is built completely with Java with the UI View Built with JavaFx 8, the current mainstream standardisation for User interface design in Java.
A numeronym is a number-based word, typically not more than 4 letters in length. Most commonly, a numeronym is a word where a number is used to form an abbreviation (albeit not an acronym or an initialism).Sometimes, pronounciations are considered (k9 for canine) which is beyond the scope of this program.
The first numeronym of this kind was "S12n", the electronic mail account name given to Digital Equipment Corporation (DEC) employee Jan Scherpenhuizen by a system administrator...
..because his surname was too long to be an account name!
This program provides two options :
This option maintains that original casing of strings. If unchecked, converts the string to lowercase.
This option maintains that the length constraint of exactly 4 characters in a numeronym.
Executables for different operating systems can be generated by editing the fxbuild.build
file, following which we generate an AntBuild
to generate the installers of the OS specific applications.
