What I would recommend instead is to switch to Wallabag:
  • Add the following hook to Settings.toml (after the On Board library entry):
    Code:
    [[libraries.hooks]]
    path = "Articles"
    program = "bin/article_fetcher/article_fetcher"
    sort-method = "added"
    second-column = "progress"
  • Rename Settings-sample.toml (in bin/article_fetcher) to Settings.toml and fill it out.
  • For the initial retrieval, bring up the library menu and select Toggle Select > Articles.



The listing of file extensions indicates that you're talking about a StarDict dictionary. As I've mentioned before, you can convert these dictionaries to the format Plato uses (dictd).
Again Baskerville, I really appreciate your quickly response and your patience. I'll either download Wallabag or use the normal kobo interface to access the pocket articles.

Regarding the conversion of the dictionaries, I'm sorry I'm very nooby regarding coding. So just to see if I understand, I need to download from github, extract it, open terminal and type 'cargo install --path' where the path is where the extracted folder is, which is my mac download folder, is this correct? And then, what should I do?

Once again I apologize for not knowing these stuff, and I promise I'll donate again for the project for all of your trouble..

Thanks one more time, and congratulations on making Plato what it is nowadays in such little time! It came from being "a nice reader I used to have on my kobo where I used koreader for pdf and kobo for ebooks I'd like to highlight" to my main reader in my kobo forma..
