Summary:
C: Handy thesaurus based on WordNet
Description:
C: |-
<p>Artha is a off-line English thesaurus with distinct features like: * hot-key press word look-up (select
text on any window and press a preset hot-key for look-up) * regular expressions based search (broaden
search using wild-cards like *, ?, etc.) * passive desktop notifications (of word definitions for uninterrupted
work-flow) * spelling suggestions (when the exact spelling is vague/not known) Once launched, it monitors
for a preset hot-key combination. When some text is selected on any window and the hot-key is pressed,
it pops-up with the word looked-up. Should the user prefer passive notifications, this can be done by
enabling the notifications option. When the term looked for is vague/not known, then either the search
can be broadened with the use of regular expressions (*, ?, etc.) in the search string or spelling suggestions
when a term is incorrect. For regular expressions based search to work, wordnet-sense-index package is
required.</p>
