GoldenDict Forum

Hello, I have made an exhaustive test of all features advertised by GoldenDict. I tested the program in OS X 10.6.8 (Snow Leopard - Intel 32-bit), 10.7.3 (Lion - Intel 64-bit) and 10.8 (Mountain Lion - Intel 64-bit). Everything works as expected except for the following:

• Babylon .BGL files, complete with images and resources. GoldenDict crashes when trying to index BGL files. Issue #128 FIXED
  
• Scan popup functionality. A small window pops up with the translation of a word chosen from another application. Scan popup functionality is platform-specific and no effort has been done to add support in Mac OS X yet. Issue #129 FIXED
  
• Support for global hotkeys. You can spawn the program window at any point, or directly translate a word from the clipboard. Global hotkey functionality is platform-specific and no effort has been done to add support in Mac OS X yet. Issue #129 FIXED

Check the original commit list while you make announcements for Mac OS/Linux EA builds, please. This commit marked as "Win-specific".

Yes, make sense in order to avoid confusion. I just copy+pasted your description. I want to keep EA builds in sync as much as possible.
Thanks

Hi chulai

I want to thank you as well for the time and effort you're putting into developing a Mac version of GoldenDict.
I use daily an earlier version you compiled (mentioned on a different thread in this forum).

Kaylee.

I'm waiting for a stable version for Mac. Thank you for your effort.

After I build and run GoldenDict.app, none of the osx menu like Quit, Preference, New Tab are responding. Does anyone have a clue? thanks.
