2) Sandhi
All sandhis are neglected
For example.
azvas =        azvaH (Text - form)
punas, punaH = punar (Text - form)
manaH =       manas (Text - form)
dhaana =      dhaanam (Text - form)
etc.

3) The compounds are analyzed into pada except technical terms, and
    every words of a compound are conected by hyphen. And also, 
    the suffix ÒtvaÓ or ÒtaaÓ will be divided in the cases when they
    means Òbecause ofÓ or Òas.Ó

4) The  nouns are analyzed into the next form to search in the entry form.
A) a-stem and aa-stem
azvena (M or N, Sing., Instrumental) = azva^ina
*-e (M or N, Sing, Locative; N, Du., Nominative or Accusative; F, Sing.,
Vocative; F., Du., Nominative or Accusative) = *-a^i
azvebhyaH(M or N, Pl.., Dative or Ablative) = azva^bhyaH
azveSu = a§va^su

B) i-stem Masculine only
zucaye (M, Sing, Dative) = zuci^e
zuceH(M, Sing., Ablative and Genitive) = zuci^aH
zucau (M, Sing, Locative) = zuci^i
zuce (M, Sing., Vocative) = zuci^a
zucyoH (M, Du., Genitive and Locative) = zucioH
zucayaH M, Pl., Nominative and Vocative) = zuci^aaH

C) u-stem Masculine only
hetave (M, Sing., Dative) = hetu^e
hetoH (M, Sing., Ablative or Genitive) = hetu^aH
hetau (M, Sing, Locative) = hetu^i
heto (M, Sing., Vocative) = hetu^a
hetvoH (M, Du., Genitive and Locative) = hetuoH
hetavaH (M, Pl., Nominative and Vocative) = hetu^aaH

D) i-stem and u-stem Feminine
Semi-vowel y and v that is obviously derived from i, ii, u and uu are rewritten
into i ii, u and uu
For example
nadyaa (Sing., Instrumental) = nadiiaa
nadyaam (Sing., Locative) = nadiiaam

E) R-stem
kartaa (M, Sing., Nominative) = kartR^H
kartaaram (M, Sing., Accusative) = kart¨^am
kartuH (M, Sing., Ablative and Genitive) = kartR^aH
kartari (M, Sing., Locative) = kartR^i
kartaaraH (M, Pl., Nominative and Accusative) = kartR^aaH

F) an-stem
aatmaa (M, Sing., Nominative) = aatman^H
karma (N, Sing., Nominative) = karman

G) in-stem
vyabhicaarii (M, Sing., Nominative) = vyabhicaarin^H
vyabhicaari (N, Sing., Nominative) = vyabhicaarin

The nouns of long vowel stem, however, may not be found Òaa,Ó ÒiiÓ 
and ÒuuÓ form, so I think you should find as a short vowel form.
