Option to automatically highlight certain words or phrases in context
Hi ! Are there functions to highlight words in a book in calibre from a txt list of words? I was trying to import a list (several lists, if I will do it correctly) from another device to calibre, to have highlighted words and phrases for easier navigation on the viewer. Is there any plugin or in built function that allows it? Example: I converted a list of words from another software in a txt file, I need these words and expressions to be highlighted in the book viewer, so it would be simpler for me to manage this type of data from other applications. Is there a way to do it? I suppose that there is.. I'm finding a very large number of info that are similar to what I'm looking for, but I didn't find any solution at the moment.

Of course it doesn't matter if a word has more occurrences, it would be ok to highlight every occurrence in the book.

Use the regular expression based search in the viewer. Create a regular expression that matches all the words. Then they will all be highlighted. But note that the performance of this is not going ot be too good for too many words.
