So, nobody interested in this dictionary program.
It is the best out there
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GoldenDict
* Supports multiple dictionary file formats, namely:
o Babylon .BGL files with images and resources
o StarDict .ifo/.dict./.idx/.syn dictionaries
o Dictd .index/.dict(.dz) dictionary files
o ABBYY Lingvo .dsl source files, together with abbreviations. The files can be optionally compressed with dictzip. Dictionary resources can be packed together into a .zip file
o ABBYY Lingvo .lsa/.dat audio archives. Those can be indexed separately, or be referred to from .dsl files
* Uses WebKit layout engine for a more accurate articles' representation (including formatting, colors, images and links)
* Supports lookups in Wikipedia, Wiktionary, or any other MediaWiki-based sites
* Can use arbitrary websites as dictionaries via templated Url patterns
* Can translate long text of many languages (e.g. through Babelfish, by adding this line in GoldenDict :
http://fr.babelfish.yahoo.com/transl...WORD%&lp=fr_en
for translating from French to English)
* Hunspell-based morphology system, used for word stemming and spelling suggestions
* Can index arbitrary directories with audio files for pronunciation lookups
* Full Unicode case, diacritics, punctuation and whitespace folding. This means the ability to type in words without any accents, correct case, punctuation or spaces (e.g. typing 'Grussen' would yield 'grüßen' in German dictionaries)
* Scan popup functionality. A small popup window displays the translation of a word chosen from another application
* Support for global hotkeys (to activate the program window or translate a word from the clipboard)
* Tabbed browsing in a Qt 4 interface
* Cross-platform: Linux/X11 and Windows + portable to others
