stardict-editor
#An editor will be opened where you need to browse and select you .BGL file(Babylon Dictionary)
#In the bottom of the opened application you select BGL file and click on Build button
#It will create a file with an extension .babylon.
#Next browse and select this file
#In the bottom of the opened application you select Babylon file and click on Build button
#That's it. It will create 3 files (.dict.dz, .idx, .ifo) in the current directory
# Now use penelope to convert to kobo format
# <from> and <to> are 2-letter language codes
python <directory of penelope>\penelope.py -p <idx name without extension> -f <from> -t <to> --output-kobo
Hope this helps. |
Dear rmreader,
I downloaded and converted babylon fr-tr dicts with a few errors. But I cannot convert them with penelope. My steps are;
I put in my converted dicts(fr-tr.dict.fr-tr.idx,etc) to penelope folder
I can start cmd windows from penelope folder(shift+right click)
I write cmd like this:
"C:\temp\penelope>penelope.py -p fr-tr -f fr -t tr --output-kobo"
Hit enter
But there is no any error or messages.
Just windows store opens to ask .py apps
Where I make a mistakes? Please show me the way.
