    Could you please upload the deb you've made here or give a link? It's definitely a must-have.

    Isn't sdictviewer already available for os 2008? I am using it. I probably downloaded it from : http://sdictviewer.sourceforge.net/

    I have plenty of dictionaries in stardict format (.dict, .idx and .ifo files for each dictionary). These work perfectly in Stardict app on desktop Linux Ubuntu. For my case, mdictionary would suffice, as it claims to support stardict-formatted dictionaries as well as xdxf. But this is where troubles begin. When I add any of these files (.dict, .idx or .ifo, and even all of them zipped in tar.gz file) and type some words to define, in the definition field it shows the same text for every term - that seems to be the first record in the dictionary.
    In Stardict on desktop these dictionaries always work as expected. Did anyone already have the problem I've described with mdictionary? So that I could maybe submit it as a bug.
    And yet one more problem - mdictionary process stays in memory after quitting, and the more launches, the more instances it adds (as mdictionaryManager).

    mdictionary seems to have problems with formating the text and no way to chose the translation I need, just a big lump of text.

    In startdict I had a side bar for choosing words and dictionaries and it worked fast with many dicts loaded (as many as RAM could hold)!

    In one dictionary it fails to load translation of the word "place" (says loading ... for ever), other words seem to load, but I haven't tested all of them .

    When trying to launch Qstardict it gives this message in Xterm:
    Code:
    qstardict: error while loading shared libraries: libQtGui.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
    Any ideas why?

    Yes. qstardict (as implied by the initial "Q" in the name) is a Qt application, and requires the Qt libraries. Install the Qt4 package and you should be fine.

    Once the application is properly set up as a ".deb" package, the prerequisites should be installed automatically. Any assistance in this step is welcome.

    I've tried qstardict and it works! Lightning fast! And it hides in the tray!
    The translation appears in a neat window as soon as I select a word. Even with loads of dicts loaded it responds very fast!

    The only thing is ... that I can't type directly into the main window.
    In qt applications the matchbox-keyboard does not pop up.
    Does qstardict require a hardware keyboard or is there a work around?

    I'm glad it works for you. Where there any details about the installation process that bear posting here?

    Ah, yes. I've only tried it on my N810, with the hardware keyboard. I don't believe that Qt supports the software keyboard on the N800 or 770, if the application hasn't been Hildonized.

    Sorry, but the keyboard will probably need to wait for another (better) developer to look at the code, or for improvements to the Maemo Qt library that add matchbox-keyboard support at that level.

    Hi all!

    I've just installed Maemo toochain and the first application to test of course was stardict(I like it very much).
    I've uploaded two .deb-packages there:
    http://gonzo.kiev.ua/n800/turist/

    There are some bugs like systray icon not disappearing after application is closed, but as dictionary it's still great.
    And it seems that it's quite more CPU consuming than previous version for OS2007
