How to install Google Dictionary in FARR
« on: February 23, 2008, 03:38 AM »
How do I add Google Dictionary to FARR. I unzipped the file and placed it inside the scripts folder. But when I bring up FARR and type in "gd whatever" nothing comes up. What am I doing wrong?

Mouser, I know you'll help me out. You're the FARR mega-master. Obviously. :)

not in the scripts directory -- put it in the Plugins directory.

Ah. Plugins. Of course. Well, I did that and then I realized it wasn't the sort of dictionary I would use. I thought it would just look up an English word that I input. Oh well. You still rock!

Well somehow a connection was made in my brain that allowed me to remember seeing an alias, 'define'. That works just fine for me! But again, Mouser, you rock!
