Hi,
If this is the second, may I know which one is the first?
By the way, gict needs a dict. server (mostly online) and also gdict and
stardict are dictionaries; while Artha is a thesaurus which works off line,
that lists a word's Synonyms, Antonyms, Derivatives, Pertainyms, Similar
terms, Domain terms, Entails, Causes, Hypernyms, Hyponyms/Troponyms,
Holonyms and Meronyms. Apart from thes,e ease-of-use features like
summoning using a global hot key, passive notifications of a given word,
suggestions, regex search. etc. are present as well. These features are unique
to Artha.
Thanks
Warm Regards,
Sundaram

That’s the second new dictionary GUI submitted in a week.
I strongly suggest that you talk with the upstreams of these new
programs, as well as the ones of gdict (gnome-utils) and stardict so
that we can settle with a single GUI with many available dictionaries,
instead of having different interfaces and sets of features depending on
the dictionaries.
Thanks,
