As of version 0.6.4 wordtrans supports dictionaries from Babylon Translator. This support has been achieved using some code from BabyTrans by Frederic Jolliton <fjolliton@free.fr>.
To use a Babylon Translator's dictionary obviously you have to have installed Babylon Translator in windows. You can download it from http://www.babylon.com.
You have to locate the following files:
Now you have to copy these files to a directory in your linux partition, or, set up wordtrans to use directly those files in the windows partition.
The graphic interfaces qwordtrans and kwordtrans let you add a Babylon Translator's dictionary easily.
/usr/share/babytrans
and you want to use the English-Spanish dictionary then
you should fill this field with
/usr/share/babytrans/Engtospa.dic
Create in your ~/.wordtrans/
a file named for example
babylon.bconf
. The name can be everything you want, but the extension
has to be bconf.
The contents of this file should be more or less this way:
[General]
alias = babylon
idioma1 = English
idioma2 = Spanish
[Diccionarios]
general = /usr/share/babytrans/Engtospa.dic
[Iconos]
idioma1 = /usr/share/wordtrans/i2e.xpm
idioma2 = /usr/share/wordtrans/e2i.xpm
In this example I supposed that the two files mentioned above
have been copied to /usr/share/babytrans/
.
