# This is a database of 'synonyms' for technical publications. Intended
# to preserve general meaning, but might cause minor differences, designed
# to deliver high capacity even in short documents. Note that this database
# may degrade the quality of non-technical writing. If you want to use
# it for other purposes, please review it, so you avoid - for example -
# replacing 'identical' with 'same' in a philosophical essay about the
# nature of identity and self-consciousness ;-) Same way, 'moral' and
# 'ethical' are defined as synonymous. Not to mention 'wished' and 'hoped'.
# Be careful.

# Format: word1 OP word2. OP is the operator, | means bidirectional
# synonym (that is, word1 can be substituted for word2 and vice versa),
# while > means unidirectional synonym (word2 for word1 only). There is no
# redundant '<' operator. Note that you cannot use multi-word phrases
# here. Sorry. Implement it in next versions ;-)

# Do include all forms of the word and all variants. For example, if
# 'foo' is synonymous to 'bar', and 'bar' to 'baz', please include
# 'foo' - 'bar', 'bar' - 'baz', and 'foo' - 'baz', if suitable, and
# include 'foos', 'bars', 'bazes', 'fooed', 'bared', 'bazed', 'fooing',
# 'baring', 'bazing', 'fooation', 'baration', 'bazition'. Do NOT put
# words that are synonyms only in some cases (e.g. only in noun form,
# or only in specific cases or very specialized meaning). For example,
# not discussing subtle linguistical differences, you do not want to put
# 'might | may' there. Why? Because there is no such month as 'Might' ;-)
# But unidirectional operator would do in this case.
#
# NOTE: No entries with uppercase characters. Period.
