lang 0.1.2 (2026-06-11)

When the input is 10 words or fewer, the context summary is now omitted from the translation prompt. Local LLMs can get confused by a context summary that is much longer than the field being translated, causing them to paraphrase the context instead of translating the input.

lang_use() and lang_help() gain a context_size argument (.context_size in lang_use()). When set, a short summary of the full help page is generated and injected into the translation prompt for every field, giving the LLM consistent terminology across sections. Defaults to 100 words; set to 0 to disable.

Rd parsing has been rewritten to use a structured intermediate list (rd_to_list() / list_to_rd()) instead of regex-based text manipulation. This makes translations more reliable and eliminates a class of edge-case formatting errors.
