Thanks Peter for the information on your Integrated Sanskrit Dictionary -- what a fantastic resource; congratulations on such a major achievement.  I see that your Apte also links to definitions that include the head word, which is a really useful feature.  It would be lovely if later versions could include hyperlinks within the definitions--Tony Duff built such a feature into his Illuminator, and it's often very handy. By the way,  I noticed that the links to 'Bothlink' and to 'Scharf's Ramopakhyana' don't seem to be working this morning.  If you could send a link to the app Ralph Bunker developed that would be great.

Cheers

Congratulations to the Harvard team for creating another Sanskrit-English Dictionary application.

Indologists should be aware that Sanskrit dictionaries have been available on the web and in other apps for some time and are currently under development in a major NEH/DFG-funded project undertaken by The Sanskrit Library and the University of Cologne (see http://sanskritlibrary.org under "Projects") or click this link.

The Sanskrit Library currently displays (at http://sanskritlibrary.org under "Reference" under "Integrated Sanskrit Dictionary" an integrated web interface of 10 Sankskrit dictionaries.  We are currently testing on our development site an expanded version with 15 dictionaries.  Our project, in conjunction with the University of Cologne, will soon expand the set even further.  We expect to offer the entire integrated dictionary in an app next year.

Several years ago Ralph Bunker developed a Monier-Williams app which was renewed with the organizing direction of Kaj Hoffman and programming of Gabriel Vincent.
