I read comics on a Nova Pro in Neoreader in French. I have a stardict dictionary that Onyx Dict cannot open. Hoever, Goldendict can open it. So I use the navigation ball to change to goldendict, but it takes 3 taps to get to goldendict. It's slow.

Also I cannot use the navigation ball to change back directly from goldendict to neoreader without going via the library. For some reason neoreader does not appear in the last used apps button in the navigation ball. Even if I could, it would still take 3 taps to get back.

So at the moment, it takes at least 6 taps to look up a word in Goldendict and return to neoreader.

So I would like to either 1) speed up moving between neoreader and goldendict via the navigation ball, or 2) use a faster 3rd party task changing app.

So does anyone know a faster way to move between neoreader and other apps using the nav ball? Also, can anyone recommend a good task changing app that works well on the Onyx.

In addition, does anyone have any ideas how I can make Onyx Dict read the dictionary? It's the Larousse Multidico (conjugaisons) on this page:

It works in Goldendict, and it is a valid stardict format (I decompiled it with the stardict viewer). I'd try reconverting it via Penelope but I don't have Linux.
