A Nice L&S App

There are a number of apps that contain the Lewis & Short dictionary, but this particular offering has some advantages in its favour. The key advantage for me is that it will retrieve entries for inflected forms.

Please I beg you make dark mode optional

The implementation of dark mode makes the app almost unusable. Please I beg you add a preference to disable it for the app. This would be a tiny amount of work. If necessary I would fund it myself just to have an app I use all the time back to how it was. Please please make dark mode optional (ie if the user has dark mode enabled still enable them to use light mode just for this app)
