Hi,

I'd like to request the following functionality for the feature "Edit dictionary" (by Tvangeste):

Is it possible that the "Edit dictionary" command be added to the context menu in the article pane (maybe below "Inspect" command when right-clicking on an entry) and when the respective dictionary file is opened (let's say in Notepad++), the cursor is positioned on the same word where the right-click is made?

Let's say I'm reading a dictionary entry in GoldenDict and I see a typo in a word. I right-click on this word and choose "Edit dictionary" command. The dictionary file opens in Notepad++ with the curson positioned on the same word, I correct the typo, save the dictionary file and return to GoldenDict, rescan and the everything is fixed in seconds.

Do you think this is possible?

This is close to impossible, unfortunately. There is no way to track back from the word in the HTML to the original line (in the original non-HTML format).

But the context menu to edit/open the current dictionary is a good idea. At least you'll be able to open the dictionary for editing right away, even though without automatic cursor placement at the exact position.

Thanks anyway!

I was hoping for the cursor position but...

Can you think of a workaround rather than searching manually?

Hi Tvangeste,

And what about editing a dictionary file compressed in dz?

Is it possible to add a routine to decompress the file, edit and then re-compress it?

I have a XXXX.dsl.dz and when I use "Edit dictionary" on it, the file opens encrypted in unrecognizable symbols.

Please unzip the dsl.dz dictionary into .dsl using free software such as 7zip. Just google it.

This is not explicitly supported in GoldenDict, all we do is just invoke the specified command with appropriate file name.

But you could do that on your end by writing a BAT file (or shell script), and in such command file you could easily do whatever you wish, uncompressing, editing, and compressing the edited dictionary back. But I agree that this is not as convenient as built-in support for compressed files.

Thank all the developers.I've been keeping up with new editions for long.
But now I have a newly-arisen problem.Each time I update goldendict,the program starts reindexing all the dictionaries.As I have a lot of dictionaries,it's somewhat a big problem.
How to solve it?

It should happen not every time but only when we change something in dictionary format and explicitly force the re-indexing of dictionaries. And since we do change the format from time to time (to accommodate the new features or to fix bugs) you're seeing this when upgrading.

This is normal. Sometimes we change format quite often but there are periods when the format is not changed for months and months.

Recently, there were some changes that required re-indexing of the dictionaries and that's what you saw.

Thank you devs!
However, where is the "Edit Dictionary" button now that it's not in the context menu ? I'm using a DSL dictionary, not a compressed one.
It's quite silly......But I really cannot find it :oops:
