Feature Request: openthesaurus.de backend

[dunkla]

It has an api and should serve better in longterm than woxikon..

Thanks for pointing out, didn't notice it has open API before. I'll read about it and see to implement it when I have time again. Also, if you are interested, you can write a backend yourself. It's quite simple and straight forward: just write an ..._lookup.py and put it under autoload/thesaurus_query/backends, the plugin will recognize it on next boot-up, referring the backend by its identifier and language. You can write any query routine, just make sure your backend has a def query(target): so that the plugin can call with.
For examples, you may refer to:
https://github.com/Ron89/thesaurus_query.vim/blob/master/autoload/thesaurus_query/backends/woxikon_de_lookup.py
and

@dunkla , as requested, openthesaurus.de is now added as one of the default plugins as of commit 4c2aa9b. Please test if it is working fine for you.

Sry for the late answer. It works as wished (openthesaurus is used by default and delviers good results).
