I just looked up cint in the Koln online Bohtlink-Roth Grosses Worterbuch.

https://www.sanskrit-lexicon.uni-koeln.de/scans/PWGScan/2020/web/webtc2/index.php 

and I noticed that for the references given for the different formations of cint  listed, for those references to the Mahabharata,the Harivamsa, the Ramayana, the Kathasaritsagara,  but not references to other works, you can download a pdf of the image of the actual page of the work ch with the reference, just by clicking on the reference..Very impressive! I had not noticed that before. 

It was not there before ) The first links appeared around two years ago. It's one of the topics covered at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AEaA7hhGjCI 

 

Does anyone know if this is an ongoing project to make all the references in the B-R Grosse Worterbuch live (i.e. point to the actual page of the work referenced).

All would not be possible. But the most widely cited are first hunted for. We lack volunteers to speed up interlinking.

 

kathāsaritsāgara was launched 3 weeks ago at https://github.com/sanskrit-lexicon/PWG/issues/70

 

and if this project also extends to other of the Koln on-line dictionaries.

Yes, it does. I recommend you use the https://sanskrit-lexicon.uni-koeln.de/simple/ UI and try Grassman for links to Rigveda and Atharvaveda, for example, or MW.

 

 

What makes this especially useful, is that the images are good enough to put in "Sanskrit CR"  https://ocr.sanskritdictionary.com/

and get almost flawless digitization.

That could be done on our end in batch mode, actually.
