Prerequisites:
You need to have JRE1.5.0 or above(Java Runtime Environment) installed prior to using this dictionary, currently only Windows XP is supported. Other Window version are also supported but they require some manual work to do other than setup itself, or may you can try installing if it works, I haven't tested it ;-) . Note: it may also work with JRE1.4 without Printing support (Try it out, I haven't, but it should ).
* Soon I will upload the procedure that how you can make it work on other platforms too.
Linux version requires that you have Postgresql installed, along with JRE though any other DBMS could also be used, in case you are willing to do some programming.
