Supposed you are writing, as I am right now. If I type C-c C-l RET bag RET The following buffer pops up: ---------- Buffer: *Lookup* ---------- Definitions matching "bag". To insert lojban, type number of definition. 1: bargu bag arch x1 arches over x2 (made of x3); x1 is an arch over/around x2 of material x3 2: dakli dak sack x1 is a sack/bag containing x2, and of material x3 ---------- Buffer: *Lookup* ---------- The regular expression `bag' matches the first rafsi for `bargu' and the English word `bag' in the second definition. If I now type `2', Emacs inserts the gismu in the sentence, here: dakli Nifty. Robert J. Chassell bob@gnu.ai.mit.edu Rattlesnake Mountain Road (413) 298-4725 Stockbridge, MA 01262-0693 USA
