Dear Tyler,
heartfelt congratulations, having the recitation sound files there is fantastic, and I really appreciate the work that must have gone into this. Indirectly, I am grateful to the people who did the recitations and granted permission for their use.
One extension that I would be happy to see would be a facility to listen to available recitations of a particular metre without first entering a stanza of that metre and getting it recognised. (Or am I missing something?) The metre list at https://www.skrutable.info/reciters might serve as a starting point for this.
Incidentally, is there a reason why you use śārdūlavikrīḍitā instead of śārdūlavikrīḍita?
Best wishes,
Daniel

Dear list members,

I have a few updates on my project Skrutable. There's still plenty of room for more improvement, but I figure I shouldn't keep silent until I think it's perfect.

The current project is now at skrutable.info. I also added a sound player for recognized meters, with support for multiple voices/styles, e.g. check out this mālinī. Thanks to those who gave permission to use not-yet public sound files. 🙏

I also expanded the connection to the DSAL Apte online dictionary. Namely, I added a button that turns separate words in the input into hyperlinks for searching the dictionary. The way I typically use it is to run the splitter on a chunk (e.g. verse or paragraph) I'm interested in, use the swap buttons to change output to input, manually truncate/change any words I know won't be found in the dictionary otherwise (e.g., arthaiḥ > artha, buddhyā > buddhi), and then generate the list of links. I find it a nice help when I'm reading.

When I finally get around to creating instructional videos, I'll post again. Feedback is welcome in the meantime.

Best wishes,
Tyler
