ParaMind 3.1 allows multiple windows to be open at a time, creating a separate window for each merge and displaying the results of the merge in a new window. The number of Word Categories you can have in a single directory has been expanded to 999 in the Standard version.

The "Replace by Category" function has been significantly improved. "Replace by Category" is a search method that looks for your word in the ParaMind database. Some search methods in computers will only find your exact word. If you are doing a web search on "apples," if you type in "apple," you won't get "apples," but only "apple." You will not find as many results. So we found a way in our old programs to have the user find Word Categories that have both "apple" and "apples." We call that search method "Replace by Category Partial." We have also created a method that let's you find the exact word, which we call "Replace by Category Exact" If you are looking for "apples" you will only find "apples," not "apple."

We have also added many new words to the existing 500 Word Categories that have come with ParaMind and cleaned up some of them up. That is, earlier versions of ParaMind made no claim to having Word Categories existing in the same parts of speech. In releasing 3.0, we made a move to have all words in a Word Category be in the same part of speech. Version 3.1 further completes that transition. Almost all Word Categories that had less than the maximum number of twenty-two words have been increased, adding hundreds of new words in the process.

In older versions we recommended printing ParaMind documents from a word processor, but in Version 3.1 you can print documents directly from ParaMind.
