[Lexicog] entry creation

I have a number of zero and process morphemes, and it has worked, at 
least provisionally, to give them a name like _ø for a zero (or _ø3ps 
vs. _øabs, etc., for different zeroes) or _rdp for reduplication or 
_trunc for truncation. This alphabetizes them all together apart from 
the other alphabetic entries. What I’ll do at publication time I’m not sure.

The 'reference' of the zero pronoun can be cross-referenced by affixes, have either a subject or object grammatical relation with the verb and is in contrast to the use of other third person, singular pronouns. This information should be put within an entry, along with illustrative sentences so who on this list can give me suggestions as to what would be a logical, practical entry form.
