[Jbovlaste show] more than one result in some situations #5

Closed dag closed 15 years ago

With for example the v and r commands, it can be useful to be able to request more than one result to show, e.g. like so:

<donri> ?r rar ske
<makfa> gismu {rarna} glossing to "natural" with rafsi -rar-   x1 is natural/spontaneous/instinctive, not [consciously] caused by person(s).   Notes: See also {rutni}, {jinzi}, {nurma}, {stati}.
<makfa> gismu {saske} glossing to "lore", "science" with rafsi -ske-   x1 (mass of facts) is science of/about subject matter x2 based on methodology x3.   Notes: Not limited to science as derived by the scientific method, but pertaining to any body of usually-coherent knowledge garnered/gathered/assembled by a consistent methodology.  See also {datni}, {fatci}, {djuno}, {cipra}, {pensi}, {jimpe}.

This may have to be commatised due to how supy parses text converters. One possible implementation is adding a --results <count> or similar switch to find that also or only affects the nested output, and then let show take a sequence of entries for display (limited by some low number to avoid floods). Then, the v and r aliases et al can have --results set explicitly.
