I downloaded the MeSH ascii format after using this module to create the hierarchical taxonomy and used the ENTRY field to add synonyms to the taxonomy via the attached python script. Just download the d2011.bin file and edit the python script with your database info and it adds about 120k synonyms to your taxonomy.

erikwebb commentedI don't grok Python, what keys are you using to determine synonyms in the ASCII format. After taking a second look at ASCII, maybe that's a better option for a format to import. Any thoughts?
I'd like to have an assortment of importers, likely to help solve the issue of term updates.
