namaste friends.

There is a new app ( https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=sanskritcode.sanskritdictionaryupdater )  to update your stardict-compatible stardict dictionaries without having to manually download and extract each one.

Code for this is available for any one to copy and modify here. (May a 1000 apps bloom!) If you want to contribute new dictionaries to the stardict-sanskrit project, that is welcome too.

Details in English:
This program downloads latest dictionary files from the internet, and stores it in the SDCARD/dictdata folder, for Stardict apps to use. We assume that you already have or will install Stardict-compatible dictionary utilities (Eg: ColorDict, GoldenDict ...) separately.

We use the index maintained by the stardict-sanskrit project (See: https://github.com/vvasuki/stardict-sanskrit https://sites.google.com/site/sanskritcode/ ).


​संस्कृतेन विवरणम् -
प्राप्यान्तर्जालात् संस्कृत-स्टार्डिक्ट-कोशानां सूचिं, स्थापयति तान् कोशान् यन्त्रे SDCARD/dictdata इत्यत्र। एवं स्थापिताः सञ्चिकाः stardict-प्रयोक्तृ-तन्त्रांशैः क्रियतामिति। स्टार्डिक्ट्-प्रयोक्तृ-तान्त्रांशः कश्चित् (उदाहरणार्थम् - ColorDict, GoldenDict ...) युष्माभिः स्थापितो वा स्थाप्यते वेति नः प्रत्ययः।

वयं stardict-sanskrit-गणेन प्रकाशितां कोशसूचिं प्रयुञ्ज्महे। (ईक्षन्ताम् : https://github.com/vvasuki/stardict-sanskrit https://sites.google.com/site/sanskritcode/

जय हनुमान्। श्रीरामजयम्।

This new updater app is brilliant, thank you so much. Downloading and installing the dictionary files was quite a challenge - enough to put many people off - but this makes it so easy.

Is there an equivalent that works for Windows 7 PC?
For some reason I am unsuccessful in installing zipped files from Goldendict on my PC.
Regards
