Harri's Autobriefer!

Harri's Autobriefer is a big new hit in the Plover Discord.

Harri says:

What it is:

Someone has a rule, like "`*D` can be used instead of `/KWREU`". You can choose to turn that rule on, then run the autobriefer

If you have `SEUL/KWREU` -> `silly` in your dictionary, you will now have `S*EULD` -> `silly` in autobriefed.json

To run it:

You stick the python file in the same folder as your other dictionaries, write each dictionary you want it to read, then select which rules you want to try out

Apply rules/briefs/rewrites to a set of dictionaries, and an Autobriefed.json is generated, that you stick at the bottom of your dictionary stack.

Maybe you want STKPW instead of S* but only when "z" is in the spelling

Maybe you want -FB instead of -F when "v" is in the spelling

Maybe you have just added a `^` key to your layout, and would like to use `^SK` instead of your `EBGS` stroke


Seriously cool idea! Check it out!
