I read books using a PDF reader and I'd like to be able to easily look words up that I don't know. I see that the ipad has an easy to use dictionary built in and that's the type of thing I'm looking for. Perhaps being able to right click a word and select "look up in dictionary".

I've installed CentOS 5.3 on my Compaq Evo N800w mobile workstation (laptop). I was able to map the volume up and volume down buttons to the proper function using System - Preferences - Keyboard Shortcuts. I need to map the Internet Browser, Email, Search, and Media Player to the other Easy Access Buttons that Compaq has on this keyboard. Has anyone had success using programs like keyTouch to get this accomplished? Should I be considering other solutions?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm looking for alternative to Adobe Acrobat Reader, a slim free PDF Reader with browser plugin, for example for Iceweasel.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have openSUSE 11.2, 64 bits. I use Evince from the very beginning. Since a few weeks, when I want to open a .pdf file, Acrobat Reader appears and reads my file. It seems to have become the default reader now. However, I never wanted to change from Evince :this simple program is well enough for me. I tried various ways, but I can't define Evince as my default .pdf reader. How can I make Evince to become my default reader again please ?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI recently discovered that I could not get gnome-dictionary to perform word look-up on ANY of my Ubuntu systems. I discovered that the problem is not with the app at all, but with the default source; dict.org has stopped functioning as gnome-dictionary expects (and trying to get to the web site just brings up a blank web page; page source is empty). One of the threads I saw in my search provided a different source that is working. It is not as extensive as dict.org's service, but it does work.
Open the Dictionary app, then open the Preferences dialog.
Go to the "Sources" Tab and click on the "Add" button.
In the dialog that opens, change the Description to "Chemnitz Server" (at least this is what I did).
Change the hostname to "dict.tu-chemnitz.de".
I did not mess with the other options.
Once you have done this you can click the "Close" button in that dialog.
In the remaining dialog, you will see a new option for "Chemnitz Server".
Select that, and you will have a working dictionary.
dict.org can soon be returned to its proper functionality.
Before anybody says it, no, I am not doing anything illegal. I have a problem. I have about 50 rar and zip files. Each of them are locked with one of four passwords. I know the passwords, but I don't know which password is for which archive. Since this is a repetitive task that I will have to do again in the future, I want to write a script (or find one) that will try each of the four passwords for all of the .rar or .zip files in a directory.
I believe the technical term for this is "dictionary attack" - however, my dictionary would only contain 4 words. I know some rudimentary Python. Would it be best to use Python for this or would Bash (which I don't know at all) be more suitable. Does anybody know of a script/app that already does this? I am not interested in bruteforce solutions.
I have a strange question (maybe not a strange question for some people though). I am currently running ubuntu 10.0.4 on my notebook and have noticed that when I am typing up documents, emails, the spell check gives me a lot of red markings indicating that the spelling is incorrect. I have done some tests and it seems that a lot of words (even some well known words which I have confirmed the spelling) does not seem to be included in the standard dictionary.
This causes the applications to think that the words are incorrect and to make some strange suggestions as to what it thinks the words should be. Does anybody know if there is a later version of these dictionaries and if so how to install them?
I can launch it with gnome-dictionary, but that is not a package in aptitude.
View 2 Replies View Relatedi just got a new internet connection from the local service provider. While installation, he insisted that i use my mobile number as the wpa password for the wifi. From what Ive heard, this is company policy. Im a little skeptical about this as ive read wpa is crackable using a dictionary if the password is in there. So i looked around and found the air-crack suite to test the security for my access point. As my password is only numeric, i couldn't find only a numeric dictionary to use with air-crack.
So, i would like to create a dictionary that has only 10 digits, and the first two digit should be "05", because thats what mobile numbers here start from. I would be really grateful if anyone could point me to a way to do this easily.
When we compare openoffice with ms office, though the auto spell check is enabled openoffice is not recognising the errors. In OpenOffice Presentation it isn't totally and in gedit it is even showing errors though they are right. How can I update the dictionary of these.It must work as efficiently as MS Office ones.

Also finally, is there not a grammar checker in OpenOffice.Org? I'm looking in the Language Settings - > Writing Aids and there isn't anything listed under grammar?
Finally, I might as well ask this in case anyone knows why. In the Writer settings I changed the default fonts to the Liberation font family however OpenOffice keeps attaching the Windows equivalents to the end e.g. 'Liberation Sans; Arial' it's really annoying and I don't know why it's doing this.
The dictionary keeps hanging and then fails with the message Error while looking up definition
Connection failed to the dictionary server at dict.org:2628
I am using Fedora 13, 64 bit version.
Also, firefox can't seem to get into dict.org.
Is there some problem with the site?
Is there some alternate dictionary source I can specify for the application?
I did a previous search before coming here, and I found some alternatives but in very old threads. Though, one of the most mentioned was one called StarDict. What do you think about this one? Is it still good nowadays or are there other alternatives?
View 8 Replies View RelatedI'm basically wondering if anyone knows where I can find a good dictionary to use with Aircrack-ng or Backtrack 4 with Aircrack or any other program like Aircrack. I am pretty fluent in the Aircrack command line, but cannot seem to find a true dictionary. I would like to not use word lists that don't use all characters, but if anyone has any ideas on creating a word list that actually works I'd love to learn. Also I have heard that some dictionaries are built into Backtrack 4, so I'm wondering if anyone knows how to find those and use them.
