Sign to stop repressing wind, given a feast (7)

I believe the answer is:

regaled

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'sign to stop' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.

'repressing wind given a feast' is the wordplay.
'repressing wind' becomes 'd' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'given' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'a feast' becomes 'regale' (I've seen this before).
'd' put after 'regale' is 'REGALED'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for regaled that I've seen before include "Feted" , "Plied with drink" , "wined and dined" .)
