It has the following distinct features that increases its usability: * [[Features#WordNet|WordNet]] - Artha harnesses the extensive & in-depth database provided by WordNet. Unlike other dictionaries which goes on-line for every single lookup, Artha works completely off-line; thanks to WordNet for its excellent and cognitive database. * [[Features#Hot key Lookup|Hot key Lookup]] - When you press a pre-set hot key, after selecting some text on any window, Artha pops up with the selection's definitions looked-up. * [[Features#Regular Expressions Search|Regular Expressions Search]] - When a word is vaguely known I.e. the user is unclear of its spelling or when it's start/end alone is known or when the number of characters is known; one can speed up/narrow the search using regular expression to locate the particular word they have in mind. * [[Features#Notifications|Notifications]] - Artha can show passive notifications (balloon tips) instead of the application's window popping up, so that you can continue what you were doing, uninterrupted. (like reading, writing, etc.) * [[Features#Suggestions|Suggestions]] - When a misspelled word is queried for, Artha gives you its near-match suggestions. * [[Features#Relative to Sense Mapping|Relative to Sense Mapping]] - Relative words like synonyms, antonyms, etc. that are displayed are many. You might not know to which sense/definition of a word does a relative map to. In Artha, when you select a relative, its corresponding definition is scrolled to and highlighted for easy comprehension. For a given word, the possible relatives shown by Artha includes [[Features#Synonyms|Synonyms]], [[Features#Antonyms|Antonyms]], [[Features#Derivatives|Derivatives]], [[Features#Pertainyms|Pertainyms]] (Related Noun/Verb), [[Features#Attributes|Attributes]], [[Features#Similar Terms|Similar Terms]], [[Features#Domain Terms|Domain Terms]], [[Features#Entails|Entails]] (what verb entails doing), [[Features#Causes|Causes]] (what a verb causes to), [[Features#Hypernyms|Hypernyms]] (is a kind of), [[Features#Hyponyms|Hyponyms]] (kinds), [[Features#Holonyms|Holonyms]] (is a part of) and [[Features#Meronyms|Meronyms]] (parts). To know more about each category of relatives, click on it for an explanation and example. Once launched, Artha sits on the system tray and looks for the pre-set hot key combination press. You can select some text on any window, and call Artha by pressing the key combo. Depending upon the option set, Artha with either pop-up with the word looked-up or will show a passive notification of the most important definition of the searched term, from the system tray. ==Get Artha== See the [[Download]] page to get Artha for your platform. ==Development== Artha is written in pure [[Wikipedia:C_(programming_language)|C]] using the [[Wikipedia:GTK|GTK+ widget kit]] and [[Wikipedia:Glib|GLib]] libraries, making it cross-desktop and cross-platform.
