Thanks, it's mistake but not bug - order does not matter. It used for T9 search, which try to look for any possible combinations.

I have some questions for you :
1) Why do you use pd format (What kind of file format is ?)

You can try my early version http://amigo12.newmail.ru/pysdict.py, which works with native Sdict files and you will see a difference. Sdict dictionaries have 3-level short index and it must be loaded, before search can be started. Depends on size of the dictionary it have took from several seconds to several minutes. Under conversion I have make simple sort of words without case sensitivity and then use binary search method. No index loading.

2) Why can i use the official format dct in pyDict ? (It' s tedious to convert source file ==> .dct ==> .pd ...

I think, that is possible to write a programm for direct convertion: source file ==> .pd

3) Why 'tuv' has 4 unicode characters look above 8: ...

These unicode characters is Russian letters for appropriate keys . My native language is Russian and my phone keyboard have latin
and russian characters. You can change it as you need.
