Dictionary for Sony PRS500/5 (autorun from SD card) with onscreen keyboard
Hi!
Like Ilasram, I've been busy with obelix' autorun solution: Here is the second edition of DictioLauncher (0.7b) These are the new 0.7b features: – Found explanations for your search word are now separated only after whole words. – The "Choose Dictionary" button lets you change the dictionary you use from the UI (your last choice is saved in "dict.dat"). I renamed dictionaries to three letters to make it easier to change them. – Expressions that consist of several words (e.g. "New York") are displayed now completely in the "first" line; "space" can be input from keyboard (but is only visible between two other letters). ATTENTION: This means that in your dictionary the search word HAS to have TWO SPACES before the explanation !!! Otherwise NO WORD will be found ... – "0.7b" stands for beta version. This one is much more complex internally than 0.5 was... – I'm glad for any feedback! (Firmware is NOT changed in any way. While developping I had to do a cold reset a few times: but never in this version...) As it runs as well on PRS-500 models (actually I got one) I'd like to place a cross-link here to the original thread in the 505 Dev Corner... This is how it works (partial quotes): – Dictionaries can be accessed without closing your current book. [...] – Your dictionary must be a simple text file. [...] – You can search for any word using the onscreen keyboard. [...] – Get at different keyboard rows with "cursor-up/down". [...] – The "arrow" (right side) removes letters from [...] – DictioLauncher will check your input word against the first word of each line of your text file. – Search time varies from zero ("a...") to"quite some time" [...] – The previous/next line (= word) will be displayed by [...] ================================================= – Included are three example dictionary files (French, Italian, Spanish; from www.freedict.com): [...] – BUT - you may use *ANY* text file you have/find [...] ================================================= link to 505 thread: https://www.mobileread.com/forums/showthread.php?t=22320 Last edited by Clemenseken; 04-16-2008 at 04:12 AM.

This is great. If you can do this, why can't Sony have a line of accessories of his sort for sale?
