be optionally compressed with dictzip. Dictionary res-urces can be packed

be referred to from .dsl files.
- Support for Wikipedia, Wiktionary, or any other MediaWiki-based sites to
perform lookups in.
- Ability to use arbitrary websites as dictionaries via templated Url
patterns.
- Hunspell-based morphology system, used for word stemming and spelling
suggestions.

lookups.

punctuation or spaces (e.g. typing 'Grussen' would yield
'grüßen' in German dictionaries).

word chosen from another application.

or directly translate a word from the clipboard.
