Dictionary - Suffixes improvement #207

Open bormachine opened 8 years ago

bormachine commented 8 years ago

When using text selection with dictionary, if word is not matched in dictionary- auto-remove suffixes until match is found. Mostly encountered issues with: -s, -ly, -ing, -ed, but also -ment, -ness and other.

Some dictionaries will refer to the original word without the suffix. Clicking on the word within the dictionary window/area will also be good. This is already in #76

This could be done but it should be implemented in the dictionary. It wouldn't be the best thing to hard code this stuff since it's valid only for english.

Yes, I really hope this can be made, it would be a great help when using the dictionary.

At InkPad 3, FW5, if i change row 3815, in cr3pocketbook.cpp, _translateResult = LookupWordExact((char *)what.c_str(), &word, &translation); with _translateResult = LookupWord((char *)what.c_str(), &word, &translation);

dictionary work as expected. Maybe LookupWordExact return something not 0? How can I enable trace log?
