Re: [Announce] MStarDict for N900
 
Another feature request: it would be great to be able to select and copy text out of a translation. It makes sense for the default behavior when touching the screen be to scroll the results page (that's by far the most frequent use-case), but some way of copying text out would be good.

are in the format dict.dz

when i decompress them, in the diretory i can find 3 files, for example:

oxford.dict.dz
oxford.idx
oxford.ifo

is the .index file the .idx file i can see in the uncompressed directory?

I can notice that if i copy the directory on the n900 probably the dictionary is seen by mstardict because i can see an empty space in the list of the dictionary

I'm having the same problem, I install the dictionary files to /MyDocs/mstardict keeping them in their folder and when I try to load a dictionary all I get is a blank button which can be selected but has no name and loads no dictionary. Any ideas about what to do?

Same Here..I copy all the dictionary's file to the MyDocs/mstardict
Open Mstardict..load dic..nothing appears.
The mstardict was auto created as the time we install Mstardict..(i guess casue's i see it there ..i didnt creat it my self)

I used terminal to check and it was there but somehow mstardict cant find it. That's suck
I am a normal user..i just need some useful apps for daily activities. However this takes the Sh*t ****

When i bought the phone on Amazon ..the MyDocs or N900 as you open File Manager was remaned to my name..Is anyone know how to rename it.

all,
do not know whether this is specific to me or not; however, it appears that if this app is left open(with the search prompt for new word); my unit does not go to idle and battery is drained overnight. Do you have similar experience?

firmware: PR1.2, with latest titan overclocking kernel(ideal profile, 500-850), no internet,bluetooth, or phone connection.

Cheers

The name shown is that set for the Bluetooth device name in the Settings app.

Whatever!! i got it work like a charm now.
It works very pretty good. I can find definition for a word with 3 or more dicts at the same time. Dont need to switch between dicts like others.

Current version is supporting:
- Stardict dictionaries
- external stardict parser plugins (mstardict package include HTML, PowerWord, Wiki, XDXF plugins by default)
- simple Text-To-Speech using espeak library
- localization

If you want to test it, install it from extras-devel repository and copy your dictionaries to MyDocs/mstardict directory.


Hello there...greetings from Colombia...I just downloaded your application and I'm downloading dicts directly from my N900 into nokia N900/mstardict/.....everyfile appears with a ? before its name....what's the next step? how can I activate them? am I doing it wrong? do I need to download them first in my computer? am I missing something...
As you have already figured it out...can you please make the explanation stupid proof (I'm kind of stupid ejem, cough, cough..huh?:cool:.....when it comes to maemo and computers and x terminals and roots..):D

What happen when you select "MStarDict" and then "Dictionaries"? Do you see a list of dictionaries there? Also, what/which dictionary have you downloaded?
