The dictionaries are back!

August 8th, 2008 by Ste

Today I figured out how to repackage the dictionary packages so they can be used by the WeDict app which is now in App Store (I host it for the <=1.1.4 firmware).

I’ve only done one so far, but now that it’s done, I can easily crank out others. So look for many more to come.

I’m currently making just Cydia packages of them. The upcoming, in-development, Installer 4 will require a feature enhancement before I can port these packages to it.

The first one:

  • Merriam-Webster (Merriam-Webster 10th dictionary)

Update: to use these:

  1. Install WeDict from App Store, if you haven’t already.
  2. Install the add-on dictionary package.
  3. Make sure all the dictionaries are selected for use, in WeDict’s settings.
  4. Enjoy.

(If you don’t select all the installed dictionaries for use, I have noticed that WeDict will list words found in unselected dictionaries, as well as in the selected ones. Selecting a word from the list, that is in an unselected dictionary, gets you a blank page. Therefore, I recommend just selecting all installed dictionaries and avoiding this issue. If it lists the word, you can be sure to get the definition this way.)

Update: I added another:

  • C.I.D.E. (The Collaborative International Dictionary of English)
