Simple chinese medical translator

[Guest guest]

Hello,

 

If you go to http:/stardict.sourceforge.net . you can down load a neat

little dictionary program. You donwload the program and thenthe dictionaries.

Their is one dictionary that translates english medical terms into chinese

charaters. Don't know if that is useful to ya? If you MS users need the

dictionaries uncompressed I can do that for you. They have dictionaries that

translate to chinese(chinese simplified or taiwan) french or spanish.

 

 

Cheers

Jeff

Looks nice, too bad it doesn't work with Mac OS X. You'd think by

now. . .

Hello,

 

Sorry i don't have OSX. I got it to work with windows and linux. The

link below sends to cross platform source code down load.

 

https://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=80679 & package_id=82452 & re\

lease_id=411082

 

stardict-2.4.7.tar.bz2 is the file they say works for

FreeBSD/NetBSD/OpenBSD/Apple Mac OS X

 

I don't know how to install source code on OSX or if OSX can unzip a bz2 file,

so can't help there. I can unpackage the bz2 file and repackage it to zip, gz

or tar.

 

For MS windows you need to download the GTK+ runtime environment first, but I

don't think you need that for OSX.

 

I'll see if I can get ahold of a friends Apple and get back to you.

I downloaded and installed several dictionaries. I already had

Kingsoft installed, but a couple more can't hurt : )

I tried it on some Chinese websites. It doesn't translate Chinese

medical terms, but Western medical terms do get translated. The

xiangya medical dictionary seems to work the best, at least for my needs.

 

Thanks for the tip, Jeff.
