I've used an older version, and it worked great. There are some
unrenderable characters on the pop-up bubble as you type, but that was
ok, cause if you type it right, the correct word pretty much is there.

However, with 0.8, reverse lookup is no longer there, and it used to
be that I could ask OV to display the proper keystrokes (not the
abridged ones) when I choose a word, for further reinforcement.

The reverse lookup is critical for me because sometimes I could lookup
the word, not knowing how to type it, and I would simply paste it in
the reverse lookup, and then figure out _why_ it uses that keycode.
e.g. I forgot how to type 飯, mostly because I forgot how to type 食字邊,
and I would look up and paste the word in the reverse lookup.

If there is a way to get that module back, or other OSX apps or online
apps that can do this, great, please let me know!

And 大家新年快樂

Fixed it.
But still curious as to why the module didn't get installed normally.

We found some serious defect in the look-up module when 0.8.0 first
came out (esp. with the Array look-up table), hence the omittance. The
module was fixed in later patches.
