A refactored fork of Wunderfitz.

Features:

  • uses free offline dictionaries from dict.cc
  • already includes the Heinzelnisse Norwegian-German dictionary
  • is straightforward and easy to use

Changes in this fork (so far):

  • cloud functionality can be disabled completely in the settings
  • new icon that looks more like a dictionary (color theme is inspired by the original Wunderfitz icon)
  • show keyboard immediately after statup
  • translated app name in launcher
  • new cover page layout
  • major internal changes, streamlining the code
  • for developers: new tab bar implementation in a separate module (can be reused)
  • (Wagnis has been removed upstream)

This app is free software released under the GNU GPL v2. The source code is available here: https://github.com/ichthyosaurus/harbour-dictionary/tree/dictionary-openrepos

Original Wunderfitz sources by S. Wolf are also available on Github.
