This is a feature request that may have been suggested before, but wanted to make sure it was in Mike's radar even if it was.
Here's the use case: There are lots of nice sample Chinese sentences in the dictionaries in Pleco, often which use more complex versions of words (adding modifiers like 下来,得到,etc.) which are not surfaced when you do a search because the dictionaries have a "~" tilda for the word in the definition.
My case example is 装不下, which can mean there is no room (e.g., when packing a suitcase). There is a definition in ABC, but there is also a sample sentence that doesn't, which is under ABC's definition for 装. It is 盒子~不下. It doesn't show up because search doesn't intelligently substitute the proper character(s) for the "~".
This could be a useful improvement for the search function.
Thanks
Steve
