For various reasons (some of which will become obvious in my next messages), I am reluctant to test this myself. I do want the problems to be obvious, for Alex's sake. For instance, the dictionaries might well be compressed (or even encrypted) in an RL-(or dict-) specific format, so that they'll fit on a Palm, and looksups won't take forever. This might make them look odd, but it is actually good. Please clarify exactly what didn't work. For example: (1) You downloaded a dictionary, but can't read it on your desktop? (2) You downloaded a dictionary, but there wasn't a way to to get a pdb from it, so you couldn't install? (3) You installed a dictionary, but couldn't run the application? (Did you install the RL application?) (4) You installed the RL application and a dictionary and a new-enough plucker, but the lookup API didn't work? (5) You downloaded the make-a-dictionary tools, made a sample dictionary, and ... couldn't read it? couldn't install it on the palm? couldn't use it? -jJ _______________________________________________ plucker-dev mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.rubberchicken.org/mailman/listinfo/plucker-dev
