MDict 2.1.1

[Guest gpcarreon (MVP)]

I just spotted this, and think it's great!

The program's name is MDict developed by Octopus Studio.

What is it?

- A Freeware app for MS-Smartphone (also for PPC)

- You can create your own dictionary file using the MDX Builder! 8)

- You can view the dictionary file on your PC using MDict for PC (included in the MDXBuilder zip file)

Here are some screenshots of MDict in action (on an app-unlocked C500, using the full version of Webster Unabridged Dictionary)

Thank you for reading this. ;)

I will start compiling my home-made Medical dictionary database for this app. Endless possibilities. 8)

EDIT 2:

I hope the author will include image tags on its future release.

Will this qualify as: AppOfTheWeek? ;)

Go go go ;)

BTW you can just dump the MDX file to your root Storage Card and the app can detect the database (*.mdx)

Here is a sample dictionary database I prepared using the MDX Builder and viewed under MDict dictionary engine. I call it: Drug Information for the Health Professional.

Home-made database! 8)
