Commentadd a note.


would it be easy/desirable to make (P) words appear above non-(P) words in search results?

a search for 頃 at present brings up:

頃 【けい】 (n) (See 畝・ほ) (obsc) qing (Chinese unit of land area equal to 100 mu) [G][GI][S][A]
頃【ころ(P); ごろ(P)】 (n,n-adv,n-suf) (1) (uk) (approximate) time; around; about; toward; (2) suitable time (or condition); (3) time of year; season; (P) [Ex][G][GI][S][A]


which i assume is only like that because it's in 五十音順

Editorial Comment Yep, the 五十音順 applies (since it sorts that way.) I need to do multiple passes to make the "(P)" entries come first. Very messy.
