Minimum length of verbs and nouns

Is it possible to define the minimum length of verbs and nouns the player may input?

I can use vocabulary aliases but it's not the most convenient way : noun { aliases = [apple, appl] }

I've thought about this for quite a while, but truth is, it's tricky to do right. There is a settings flag calls n_char_parser = x, which will allow a value of 4, 5, or 6, but then you have to make sure that all your objects have 4, 5, or 6 letter nouns attached (not automatic).

Automatic short aliases is something I'm definitely considering, but it certainly won't be done by the end of the jam.

Typing on Adventuron has tab completion, so type the first few letters, and press TAB to cycle through completions.
