NewDictS 0.7

[XDelusion]

Thank you for the help. So for the dictionaries, I need to download StarDict? Because I do this for windows, thinking that if I install it, it will then give me the idx dict ifo and aoi files I want...

...well I updated my GTK and it says I don't have it installed.

I tried to download what I thought were dictionaries on the 2nd link you provided me, and the archive only contained a DZ IFO and IDX file, the DICT and AOI files were missing.

As for the guide you wrote, I failed to find that too.

Sorry for being such a pain. I'm trying sincerely.

The guide is at PALIB - Uwe is my nickname there. You don't need to install stardict under windows though I would recommend it because that programm is really good. You are right there is a bug in the installation routine, I had to manually unpack the setup to get it running (don't ask me how I did it ).
For the Dics:
You are near to the solution.
DZ - is a compressed dict file, you have to unzip it with 7ZIP. The AOI file you have to create by yourself. Unpack idxToaoi.rar and use it with the idx file of the dic.

Ok I think I got it all down, my only problem now is I loaded up the program and the dictionary I downloaded was in Japanese or something. Can you suggest a good English Dictionary for me?

im trying to this to work too. i have the .dict and .idx files. Im guessing i have the .ifo file (my pc seems to think its a dvd movie file)

when i load and press a, i get some chinese characters surrounding the script "idx" what i am missing and do i really have the ifo file?

OK there is a discussion on PALIB about the right use of the software including a link of a prepared demo package (demo dictionary in working folder structure expiring at 08.07.2007).

When I click that link I get this:

Additionally, a 403 Forbidden error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.


--EDIT-----

I can get NewDictS working, but dictionaries are garbled.

Definitions are blank or don't correspond to the word entered.

Strangely though, the first 100 or so entries work perfectly, if I'm looking for something that begins (in English) with an "A" chances are it will work ok.

Please help, NewDictS was one of the main reasons I got my NDS lite!

I'm using a DS FireCard. I found out that it's a clone of the N-Card, so I've been DLDI-ing using the N Card driver.

For some odd reason every time I download anything and put it to my Games n' Music thing it never works. Can someone give me an explanation please?

maxiewawa&Lakitou:
Try to run chkdsk /f in Windows to check if your memorycard has some fat errors. Those are sometimes responsible for that odd behaviour. Sometimes even reformating with fat32 or fat16 helps, you have to try it out by yourself.

maxiewawa:
If that won't help, try different versions of newdicts, if you can't find them contact me at palib with your pm that I can send you an "assorted collection".
