Only first key term in XDXF is indexed by converter.exe
Dear members,
I've made a dictionary Spanish-Dutch (50,194 entries, from on old Windows dictionary program), converted it to XDXF and made a dic file of it for my pocketbook touch lux 3. It worked fine.
To make it more complete I added 27,000 articles from a Spanish dictionary (Diccionario Vox) for entries missing in the first version. It suited me even better than it's predecessor. Although with quite a lot of words one tap is sufficient to make pop up the article, this is not the case with a lot of inflections and conjugations. In those cases, after reading translation not found, one has to tap the pencil button, type a few characters before the desired entry appears in the search list, tap on the word to make it the first item in the list, and finally tap on it to let pop up the meaning.
To solve this problem I extracted from another Spanish dictionary nearly half a million conjugations and inflections and integrated them into the XDXF-file as extra Key terms in the corresponding articles (See attachment)
Unfortunately only the first key term is indexed and as a result the problem still exists. All key terms appear now in the definition popup.
A babylon version of the file works perfectly in Goldendict on windows and smartphone. Strangely enough the bgl file could only be successfully made In Babyblon Glossary Builder from a gls file (in ANSI) and not from an Excel workbook.
My questions:
Is this a wrong approach (adding extra key terms) or a bug in the converter or dictionary program on my e-reader?
Would adding the half million inflections to the morphems.txt be a solution ?
Thanks in advance.
Pol
