KROHN, Haakon S.. Search Engine Programming in JavaScript for Digital Dictionaries Abstract. Cuad. linguist. hisp. [online]. 2019, n.34, pp.109-130. ISSN 0121-053X.  https://doi.org/10.19053/0121053x.n34.2019.9410.

In this paper, aimed at lexicographers without previous knowledge about programming, we explain, step by step, how to program search engines with different functionalities in JavaScript for digital dictionaries. In this way, we expect to contribute to lexicographers to participate more actively in the development of this tool so essential for a dictionary. The examples are based on characteristics of the search engines of several dictionaries available on the web and focus mainly on three types of correspondences between the search term and the keywords: complete, partial and with wildcard. Also shown is how to create an additional function to allow even more flexibility by means of character substitution.

Keywords : lexicography; computational linguistics; computational programmi.
