Hello all, just letting you know that I am considering importing the data from this dictionary into a program called FLEx to then use as a basis for creating bilingual and trilingual dictionaries for students of English. I work with an organization that does a lot of minority language dictionaries, and so the idea would be to have the base dictionary in English with every word tagged for its potential use in a dictionary (e.g. full dictionary, student basic dictionary, chemistry dictionary, etc), then to pull a certain dictionary and add definitions and translations in both a national level language (e.g. if it were in Sudan, Arabic, if it were in Mexico, Spanish), then to use that bilingual dictionary as a basis for trilingual definitions from minority language (e.g. in Sudan, a language like Fur, in Mexico, a language like Nahuatl).
Wondering if anyone knows a really simple way to get the whole database exported to a single XML file with each element tagged with a backslash code (this would be a file importable into FLEx).
Thanks everyone.
