make openoffice_en backend works for other language

[shadowwa]

I tried to use the openoffice_en backend in french by using the files provided by libreoffice. It works but I need to keep the 'en' in tq_language list:

with this configuration, only online thesaurus are used

let g:tq_language=['fr']
let g:tq_openoffice_en_file="/usr/share/mythes/th_fr_FR_v2"
let g:tq_enabled_backends=["openoffice_en",  "cnrtl_fr", "synonymo_fr"]

a workaround is to add 'en' the the language list and only french backend
both libreoffice and online thesaurus are workings

let g:tq_language=['en', 'fr']
let g:tq_openoffice_en_file="/usr/share/mythes/th_fr_FR_v2"
let g:tq_enabled_backends=["openoffice_en",  "cnrtl_fr", "synonymo_fr"]

but it become complicate if I want to have english and french backend activated and switch language by modifying tq_language option.
where I have to change, the language, the openoffice_file and the backend options. I tried

let b:myLang==0
function! ToggleThesaurus()
    if b:myLang==0
        let g:tq_language=['en', 'fr']
        let g:tq_openoffice_en_file="/usr/share/mythes/th_fr_FR_v2"
        let g:tq_enabled_backends=["openoffice_en", "cnrtl_fr", "synonymo_fr"]
        b:gyLang=1
    else
        let g:tq_language=['en']
        let g:tq_openoffice_en_file="/usr/share/mythes/th_en_US_v2"
        let g:tq_enabled_backends=["openoffice_en", "mthesaur_txt", "datamuse_com"]
        b:gyLang=0
    endif
endfunction

but if the switch works for the libreoffice thesaurus, the plugin only use the first backend list.
In this example, I am able to use the three french thesaurus backend but switching to english use only openoffice_en one.
If I enable all backend before the function, in french, I'll get answer from all backend in french and in english.

hmm, tq_language is a toggle to see which backend to toggle on. By then, I didn't know my openoffice backend even work with French dictionary, so openoffice was configured as en backend.

thesaurus_query.vim/autoload/thesaurus_query/backends/openoffice_en_lookup.py

Line 21 in 23d8aa3

language = "en"

Now it seems like this backend can be more flexible and configured to be used as different backends, which caused your problem.

A quick fix would be to change the location I posed above to
language = "fr"

But a more elegant way to resolve it may be to turn office office backend as a series of backends based on dictionaries user points to. But this will incur code change.

Please use the quick fix method first. I will work on the code change method when have the time.
