In this posting on the en-Forum, Hanya gives a short example oxt file (written in python). https://forum.openoffice.org/en/forum/viewtopic.php?p=387917#p387917 I have looked at smart tags from time to time, but always been distracted by something else. My immediate thoughts are that (for me) they might be useful if general routines were written to permit certain words be recognised (as tags) and the action associated with them be the popping up of an associate database entry or reports. I'm thinking in terms of the background information concerned with writing a complex text, be it a fiction or a historical analysis. This is a different method of implementing what is often called a "Writer's Organiser". I remark that I find the default "smart tag" underlining is barely visible. Hanya's example requires one to enter a tag of form !(text_word) (no white space) and when it is ctrl clicked upon it will be replaced by an environmental variable. His Recogniser uses a python regular expression to identify the tags.
