 Convert fre gcide and wn dicts

 
 by johanhake on: Oct 8 2009
 
Score 50%

Hello! Very useful application you have there! Installed it today and I've used it several times already!

Is it possible to convert the free gcide and wn dictionaries? I have tried to unzip them using dictunzip and I have tried converting them using dictconvert and pyglossary, with no success.

I am not sure what format these dictionaries are in so that might help :P

Btw. I'm on Kubuntu with KDE 3.3.2

PyGlossary is a separate project aiming to support multiple dictionary types!
It's better to ask his developer to support this :D

 German language problem

 
 by klinkigt on: Jan 17 2010
 
Score 50%

Hi,

I really like this app. The integration into kde is perfect and it is fast.
But I have some problem with german to english dictionaries.

Some words must be searched with the first letter in uppercase, like "Markt"
There is so corresponding word in lowercase. This would not be a problem, if the system would return a result anyway, but this does not happen. The database file seams to be correct and contains "uppercase"-words.

Is here something wrong with the sql query?

I would support to bugfix this.

cheers
Martin

Hmm, Changing queries to search case insensitive makes mdic speed too low!

I'm about to make another way for you!

Hi,

great to hear. I am also programming a bit a solved it, be passing the unprocessed string to the dict engines. Here I correctet the character checking and first run the dict engines. If there is no result, I make a lower case version and run the engines again:

Here is the changed code:
while ((word2find[0] != '@') && ((word2find[0] < 64) || (word2find[0] < 97 && word2find[0] > 90) || (word2find[0] > 122 && word2find[0] < 128))) { //for remove characters before word like ; . or ... except @ (we need @ for related words link in babylon databases)
if (word2find.size() == 1)
return result;
word2find.remove(0, 1);
}

while ((word2find[word2find.length()-1] < 64) || (word2find[word2find.length()-1] < 97 && word2find[word2find.length()-1] > 90) || (word2find[word2find.length()-1] > 122 && word2find[word2find.length()-1] < 128)) { //for remove characters after word like ; . or ...
if (word2find.size() == 1)
return result;
word2find.remove(word2find.length() - 1, 1);
}


... and ....

if (mainWord != mainWord.toLower()) {
// nothing found, now make the main word to lower
word2find = word2find.toLower();
mainWord = word2find;
continue;
} else
........

may be it helps.

Thanks for this great dict.
Martin

Can this dictionary be used offline or does one require an internet connection?

 KDE popup

 
 by molecule-eye on: Feb 4 2010
 
Score 50%

When using KDE Popup the notification has a fixed size of about two lines. This makes any additional text unreadable and thus makes KDE Popup unusable. This in KDE 4.3.5.

 Bug when hiding in system tray

In KDE 4.5.2 (Kubuntu 10.10) when the mdic icon is hidden in the system tray the text that is supposed to be beside the mdic icon instead overlaps with the top item in the hidden list.
