Wiktionary for the dictionary plugin = Rocktionary

Hi,

I'm new here, but a Rockbox user since the project started.
I joined this forum due to this interesting thread.

Do you know there is already a dictionary plugin part of Rockbox (see http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/vie...kboxDictionary)?
So, why reinvent the wheel? The plugin is very fast, even with big files.
The interface is kinda basic though and scrolling long descriptions isn't implemented yet.

To be constructive, I prepared the latest Wiktionary dump (English, with nearly 100.000 articles) for this plugin.
You can download it at http://www.yourfilelink.com/get.php?fid=52700 (10MB zipped, 30MB unzipped).

It would be no big deal to convert the Wikipedia to the Rockbox dictionary format, but without scrolling it's somewhat pointless. Any volunteers?
