There is no trivial way to extend Pinchord, to share your extensions, or to use other people's extensions.Very little about Pinchord's implementation is specific to the particular chords that Pinchord uses, and Pinchord is meant to be extended and modified to fit the particular use case of a user.The way to solve this would be to make a standard format for chords that works on both Plover and Javelin that is trivial to extend by users.---Implementing a single chord format that can be used on both Plover and Javelin is tricky.I think the best way to do it might be to work from what Javelin can do, and to build a Plover plugin to read that dictionary. This might not be the nicest format to work with, but I don't see a better way to do this on Javelin.
