sorry I forgot xgammon was not available for vector..I have it on various other linux with xmahjongg...I play it almost everyday...I was useing wine to play a windows game on vector and also used a gnu version that someone had packaged but was never included in the repository..it was a little flacky but worked 2d with a couple tweaks...anyway

cheers

I've been working on a package for stardict compiled without Gnome necessary.  If hata_ph doesn't get around to it, I can upload what I have.

I have build stardict-3.0.1 but with out gnome, festival and espeak plugin. Donno what does it work thou.

I cannot find the xgammon website, does anyone know it?

Might as well mention, if anyone needs dictionaries, encyclopedias, thesauri, etc. for stardict, you can check the following two sites:
http://xdxf.sourceforge.net/
http://stardict.sourceforge.net/

You can also check here for a nice listing of the xdxf dictionaries:
http://xdxf.revdanica.com/down/
Format needs to be set to stardict.

There are also some tools with the stardict program (at Sourceforge) to create your own dictionaries.

Even without any dictionaries installed, you can still use stardict on Linux to look things up like man page entries.
