From the pulldown menu where you can select 'Livecode Script', 'Livecode Builder', ... etc, include 'Glossary' which would bring up a similar table to Associations, just 2 columns, Name - a link, and Description.
A negative filter. I imagine most long time users don't need to see the Glossary entries. Currently you can Filter the search but only by a single Type + single Tag + single OS. Searching by all Types except Glossary (or any other Type) would be very handy too. Maybe the Filter label could be used as a trigger; clicking on it would change the label from 'Filter with:" to/from "Filter without"
When you type in the Dictionary search box, in the list of hits, if any are Glossary then these are highlighted as such: ie if the search term is stack
When perusing the actual content of a Dictionary entry, if you pass the mouse over any word/phrase/link that has a Glossary entry then a tooltip pops up with just the Description portion of the entry. Probably hard to implement as it would require further refinement of the mark up to something like this:
<nnnnn(glossary)|nnnnn(type)|nnnnn s ed ing> --tooltip|link|visible text
<nnnnn(glossary)|nnnnn s ed ing> --tooltip & link|visible text
<nnnnn(type)> --link & nnnnnn as visible text - no tooltip **
** actually this could be extended so that commands and functions could have their Syntax displayed as a tooltip - but I wont get too greedy and just go with Glossary for now ;-)
