What is MacDING? | ||||||
MacDING is an english <-> german dictionary-lookup program
for Mac OS X.
It is a reimplementation of
Frank Richter's DING (DIctionary Nice Grep) lookup program for Unix/Linux
Systems (using Tcl/Tk).
MacDING is natively implemented in Cocoa and provides
therefore an eye-candy Apple interface.
The functionability at this point however, is not as
comprehensive as the one provided by the original software
(e.g. no ispell/dict lookups). If you need a more comprehensive
application, you might consider installing the original
software (it runs under Apple's X11).
This program as well as its predecessor is released under the GNU General Public License. It can therefore be modified and reused under the conditions of this license. I would be happy about improvements of this application (you will need a little knowledge about Cocoa/Objective-C and Python, pyobjc). | ||||||
