DING

[wingevil]

For me a very useful little tool

DING --> Dictionary Lookup de-en

simple, fast, bulky database --> recommended

To install it, wish from tcl must be installed first.

Why another dictionary? Only DE/EN available?

Why another dictionary? Only DE/EN available?

Because I wanna it offline also, it's much faster than any online-dict and I just need only de-en.

I got a PM with a question about how to install ding and wish, so I'll answer here, too:
wish is part of the tk package so install tcl and tk: slapt-get -i tcl tk

I still use and love Steak used from a terminal, eng>de, de>eng. Unfortunately, it seems it is not maintained any longer.

Old site:

May be someone can find a new version?
