https://code.jsoftware.com/wiki/Vocabulary/Words#WordFormation needs
to be updated.
Presumably this sentence needs to be extended somehow:
"A graphic such as (+) is a word in itself. However it may be
inflected, e.g. (+:)."
The best I can come up with, to describe the current behavior would be:
"Also, {{ and }} are each single words when not inflected."
Perhaps with a "starting in J902" clause, since j902 is still in beta.
Does that seem to be about right?
Thanks,
