dictpopup

It's a very lightweight program to show a popup with the translation of the selected text. It uses sdcv for the dictionary lookup and a slightly modified version of herbe to display the popup.

Dependencies

xclip, sdcv

Setup

Compile with make and place dictpopup as well as popup in your PATH.

Usage

call dictpopup to translate and display the popup of the selected text. The popup can be dismissed by clicking on it.
You can also use popup like popup "Hello" for other things if you want.
The styling can be changed in config.h, but it has the be recompiled then. There is also a xresources patch from herbe that you could try to apply.
