Desktop Dictionary1.0.0.4 Beta

Desktop Dictionary is a lightweight and compact Windows application designed to give you a hand when it comes to performing searches and finding the English word meanings directly from your desktop.The program is able to provide different translations of the words, as it grabs its information from multiple online dictionary web sites.Since this is a portable program, it is important to mention that it doesn’t leave any traces in the Windows Registry.You can copy it on any USB flash drive or other devices, and take it with you whenever you need to translate English words on the breeze, without having to go through installation steps.This is a Java-based utility, so you should make sure you have previously installed the working environment on the computer, otherwise you cannot run the tool.Desktop Dictionary sports a clean and simple layout that gives you the possibility to select the website from where the program retrieves data (e.g. Dictionary.com, Answers.com, WordWeb), copy the information to the Clipboard, as well as search for the meaning of the selected world.What’s more, you can refresh the information with just one click, go to the previous or next search, print the information or export it to a file, specify the saving directory, as well as set up proxy parameters.During our testing we have noticed that the application displays the search results quickly, and without errors throughout the entire process. It stresses up the CPU and memory, so the overall performance of the computer may be affected.All things considered, Desktop Dictionary seems to be the right choice in case you are looking for an easy-to-use tool that bundles only a few dedicated parameters.
