Request: How do you build your dictionaries?

[gebeer]

I have an app where users can add banwords through a form and I would like to add these to a custom dictionary file. The way the dictionaries are provided atm as PHP code makes it quite difficult to append terms to them programmatically. A format like CSV would be much easier to extend.

You could move the array_push($badwords,... into the readBadWords method and get CSV or JSON dictionary contents via file_get_contents and then parse them?

EDIT: Thinking more about it, you might have implemented it as is for performance reasons because parsing dictionaries into arrays will take extra time?

I'm using newline separated text file. It's easier to add/remove word.
