@Ricsie: A minimal dictionary source file with two entries (and inflections) looks like this: Code:
<html> <body> <idx:entry> <b><idx:orth>book <idx:infl> <idx:iform value="books"/> </idx:infl> </idx:orth> </b> <i>noun</i> <br/> A written or printed work </idx:entry> <br/> <hr/> <idx:entry> <b><idx:orth>go <idx:infl> <idx:iform value="goes"/> <idx:iform value="going"/> <idx:iform value="went"/> <idx:iform value="gone"/> </idx:infl> </idx:orth> </b> <i>verb</i> <br/> To move from one place to another </idx:entry> </body> </html> 1. Open each .html file with a text editor and wrap each dictionary entry in <idx:entry>...</idx:entry> tags and each headword in <idx:orth>...</idx:orth> tags using regular expressions. 2. Create a new dictionary project with Mobipocket Creator and add all .html files. 3. Add the dictionary metadata and compile the dictionary. |
