(snip) Thanks for adding that.
Have you considered adding it to the latest version included in in the MC IDE v2.6b7 package? A lot of changes have happened in that version, including the ability to import the Rev 2.5 XML files in addition to the older revdictionary.rev stack.
If so, please add yourself to the credits when you're done and pass it back and I'll gladly put it in the next build.

Meanwhile I added the filter routines to the latest version of the Dictionary (Starter) and sent the modified file (7 K) directly to you (as I could not find out how to upload it to the files page of the Yahoo MC_IDE site).
A few observations concerning the new (and old) IDE version:
- The width of the Tools and Help menubuttons of the Menubar needs to be adjusted, e.g. "Message Box" etc. is not fully readable
- Setting a HTML-Text in the answer dialog is restricted to the prompt text, what about the buttons? In former versions it was possible to set the textsize and textstyle of all parts of the text (compare my stack "Transparent Dialogs")
- As already mentioned by others, the width of the dialogs needs to be adjusted, too.
For the answer dialog this can be done in the last line of the following repeat-handler of the card script by changing the former 14 of the added width to 28
"repeat with i = 2 to nchoices + 1
show button i
set the name of button i to line nchoices + 2 - i of it
set the width of button i to the formattedWidth of button i + 32
add the width of button i + 28 to bwidth #this is the line
end repeat"- There is some "ambiguity" in the Resource Mover - and has been since the beginning of Metacard:
* checkbox "MetaCard Icons" only copies about 8 icons - needed for the dialogs - into the stack
* "Icons Set in Scripts" should be renamed as it refers likewise to icons that are set in the properties dialog of buttons
P.S.: I will be off for nearly two weeks touring through (rainy) Scandinavia
