Shabdanjali the Hindi Dictionary

I saw the Shabadanjali Dictionary while working with Shashi Palekar ji on her Paper on MultiLigual Dictionaries.But it was ISCII based and requires a plugin to display the characters which is never a good idea. Unicode rocks and should be a standard application.

While surfing i found shabdkosh.com and the Unicode version of shabdanjali for windows, which can be easily implemented with Linux.

For Installing the dictionary just Use

#sudo apt-get install stardict

and extract the files in /usr/share/stardict/dic.
