New version of InTranslate

[This page is outdated. Please visit http://www.onnoot.com/wiki/intranslate.]

InTranslate, a Greek dictionary lookup tool for browser Firefox, didn't work from Greek to English. Now it does. Onnoot fixed it.

InTranslate is created by mpeimpiii. The problem was that Greek text was offered to the In.gr dictionary in UTF-8 encoding. But In.gr doesn't want UTF-8, it wants Windows-1253 encoded Greek text. So I built in a small convertor, that converts Greek letters directly from UTF-8 to Windows-1253 URI-encoded.

Beware, I tested this only on my own computer. Use it at your own risk. There is no garantee. Please share your experience here, so that I can further improve the extension. Please mention your Firefox version and language, the version of the InTranslate extension, and the page on which you tested it.

InTranslate 0.2a

InTranslate 0.3

[Update april 12, 23:30]
After clicking this link, Firefox will tell you it didn't install the software to protect your computer. Click "Edit options", then "Allow" and then "Close", and then try again.

Is it safe? Yes. If you don't trust it, save the file on your disk, open it with WinZip or 7-zip, and have a look at the sources.
