You can do both - the query of an external agent (URL as you put it) can be done by any DICT client as QaMoose abides by the DICT protocol. I'd highly recommend you read the README file along with the various docs as part of the package. > One more thing, I'm looking to add more functionality to it to be > unidirectional, I mean to translate from Arabic to English too, do > you think this is doable with the correct version, or does require > lots of customization? Its not a question of customization per se, its a question of simply adding the appropriate code. The key here is not so much the mechanism by which to add words (that's easy enough to do) what is key to all of this is the ability to generate external wordlists (like Arabeyes' current English-to-Arabic wordlist project [1] -- we'd planned on starting an Arabic-to-English effort once we complete the afore mentioned list but we don't have a timeline just yet). In short, what's of interest is not how the data is gotten (ie. the method), but the availability and quality of the data (a dedicated team working on a wordlist we've found is alot more realistic than depending on the occasional entry by random people). > I know that you might be doing this on your spare time, but I appreciate > your prompt response. Keep in mind that this code is under GPL license and as such we expect all to abide by its license and ethics. Let us know if you undertake any future work in this regard. In the future do please use the 'developer' list for any questions/comments. > Tamer El-Nasser > Development Manager > Maktoob.com, Inc.
