Hello!

A while ago some good man helped me to convert Latvian openoffice.org .dic
dictionary file to .xpi for use in Firefox.

CAn anyone do this again with the new version:
http://heanet.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/openoffice-lv/lv_LV-0.7.zip


P.S. If you point me to the link/tool that does this convertation I would be
most grateful...


Have a nice day ;)

Here's the tool: http://benjamin.smedbergs.us/dictionary-packager/.
Just bookmark it and then happy usage! ;)

You supply unzipped lv_LV.aff and lv_LV.dic files to it, and it feeds
you with a .xpi, which you can then submit to addons.mozilla.org.

You can even unzip the .xpi look at its internals, and modify the
makefile of your Latvian dictionary, so that it generates a proper
.xpi with each make. At least this is what I was going to do with the
lt_LT dictionary (haven't done yet, though).
