artha
Handy off-line thesaurus based on WordNet
Description
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
