what's the function of [trn] tags?

[yuchen]

There is an entry as follow:

Code: Select all

bad
   [m2][c indigo][b]THESAURUS[/b][/c][/m]
   [m4][c gray]▪[/c] [b][trn]disappointing[/trn][/b] not as good as you hoped or expected:  [*][ex][lang id=1]Her exam results were disappointing.[/lang][/ex][/*] [*]|[/*]  [*][ex][lang id=1]a disappointing start to the campaign[/lang][/ex][/*][/m]

Does GD index the content between [trn] and [/trn] ? If it does, does this means when I look up for "disappointing", it will also show the "bad" entry ?
It doesn't work this way on my computer. Is there any way to achive this?

Thank you.

The trn tags have no special meaning for GoldenDict (at the moment). In Lingvo, they are used for the full-text search, to logically separate search results between translations, examples, etc.

Essentially, trn means - everything inside the tag is a translation of the word. Not comments, not examples.

As for your second question, with the DSL-based dictionaries, there is no way to provide "synonyms" and automatically them look-up.
