Good evening, Doitsu
Thank you for responding. My dictionary is not in a bgl format thus, I don't think that the stardict editor is useful here. Actually, I tried this editor and like pyglossary, it threw up countless no-tab errors in the full text file and gave me empty stardict files.
Thank you the excel example but I don't understand excel.
In looking again at the text file it is like this:
headword space [prononciation of headword]space definition. In other words, the bracketed prononciation-in the international alphabet-is what separates what follows from the next headword and bracket. So that, what follows the bracketed prononciation of the headword will pertain to the headword until the next bracketed prononciation with the headword just before it. Now, where would one set the tab that would separate headword and bracket from the next headword and bracket?
Again, I am trying to understand the workings of a tab delimited file and what pyglossary is looking for.
cordially,
pz
