Re: Could an IAST search be possible for a Golden Dict dictionary?

namo vaḥ,

Triggered by the below request, I've added IAST headwords to all dictionaries under https://github.com/indic-dict/stardict-sanskrit/tree/master/sa-head .

Dear Vishvas,

 

Pranams!

I have tried almost all Sanskrit->English dictionaries for Golden Dict, but I have not managed to find one that will translate from IAST.
For example, if I paste nityā in the search field, there are no results. I have to manually write nityaa to get a result... Doing that for many entries could be time-consuming...

 

Is there a way to implement IAST transliteration searching for this fantastic Monier-Williams dictionary (tar archive 4), for example?
Or, is there an existing sanskrit to english dictionary I might have missed?

 

Thanks for your time!

Have a great day,
Coelispex
