As I felt the need for filter and scroll routines when searching Richard's FWDictionary - and this need was shared by some of our students - I have added such routines to the dictionary.

The modified dictionary can be inspected and downloaded from
<http://www.sanke.org> English version, page "Tools and Samples for Development"


Both the "filter with" and "scroll to" routines work forwards and backwards, i.e. if you shorten the searchstring in the filter field the corresponding number of entries in the "token" field will be restored.

The resulting necessary scripts are much shorter than those for the same features of the original Rev Transcript Dictionary, which apart from the scripts contained on the search page need additional support from the script library of button "revdocslibrary" (836 script lines) of card "Sections List" of stack "revdocs".

If Richard would appreciate such an enhancement, the changes needed in his setup stack would be minimal:
two additional controls and minor alterations of scripts on the "index" card.


Best regards,

Wilhelm Sanke
