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)</p>
<p>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.</p>
<p>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.</p>
<p>For regular expressions based search to work, wordnet-sense-index package is required.</p>
