Hola guys;
I seeked a bit for some quick dictionnaries (like, I can use my PDA to translate the word I see written while I walk the street)
Of course, I searched everywhere and beside really nice paidware for 29.9$, I didn't find what I seeked.
As it was really simple, I decided to try to make it. This is so a first try of WM programation for me, use it if you like it.

In short : it's just a "CSV" (comma separated values) reader that will let you search one entry easily.
After installing it, only the fr<->en dictionnary is installed. You're free to put other and remove it.
Options:
* "Filter" let you choose the column that is searched (ie. the one on which words are filtered by the text entered)
"start/contain" switch between filtering the words "containing" or "starting by" the entered text.
* "Dictionaries" let you choose one of the dictionary file you installed.
I used the same format as this website: http://www.dicts.info/uddl.php
You can download here the dictionary content you wish.
Note:
- The website has a lot of dictionaries but they're not really complete.
- Once downloaded the file, name it "AA-BB.dic" where AA and BB are the language reference (fr-en.dic ; français-anglais.dic ; french-english.dic ; ... as you wish), then copy it to the installation folder (the one that contain fr-en.dic at the begining).
- For the dictionary to be usable you have to restart the program.
If you know a better source for dictionaries data, tell me, I'll use it.
The program is just a draft: it will have poor performances with big dictionaries.
If somebody is really interested, I can fix some stuff.
