Hi, I installed qstardict to see if its better than mstardict (I have no idea to activate speech in it even after i installed the synthesizer) so when i activate the stardict plugin under configure and click the wrench tool nothing happens not even the circled ! icon works do i have a broken version?


EDIT: actually i discovered the answer on page 7 users with QStarDict 0.13.2-3fb2 will end up with a broken and useless version of this program under PR 1.3 so extras devel needs to be accessed through downloader to get the working QStarDict 0.13.2-3fb3

thanks for the answers guys


EDIT2: I got it working alongside mstardict so they share dictionary directories. i remember a poster in this thread mentioned making a link for "dic" under user/stardict/ to the mstardict folder where the dictionaries have to be stored for mstardict, but all you really have to do is after clicking the wrench in qstardict is hit the + then target the mstardict folder then highlight it in blue then press out of the wrench window. Then press the dictionary tab and they will be there (even if multiple dictionaries are put in their own folders) after that its a matter of check boxing all the desired dictionaries for use.


Now when i tried to use the word speech in qstardict it unfortunately did not work just like in mstardict, which is confusing because i have it installed. Is there further steps to take so they will utilize the synthesizer? i thought it was merely installing espeak but it never works.
