I modified the google module to do dictionary lookups with dict.org. pretty handy since I'm a terrible speller. The source is available at: http://orangetide.com/computing/programming/misc/tikiwiki-mod-dict.tar.gz it includes two php files and an icon from dict.org. Someone take a peek at it and tell me if it's good enough to have added to tikiwiki. thanks! -- Jon |

(if you have open new window for external links turn one). Some of the definitions the dict protocol returned were a bit too long to comfortable fit into a module window. Also this way was less work. -- Jon |
