A quick-n-dirty tool to convert XDXF dictionary files to Apple Dictionary plug-ins.

What you will need:

• Xcode - For the Dictionary Development Kit.
• Some XDXF dictionaries.
• The XDXF to Dictionary project itself.

How to use:

From Xcode

1. Copy your XDXF file into the xdxf folder.
2. Open xdxf.xcodeproj.
3. Go to Project > Edit Active Target "make"
4. Change OUTPUT_NAME from "eng_spa" to whatever your XDXF file is named (less the .xdxf extension).
5. Click the build button.
6. Copy the temp/OUTPUT_NAME.dictionary file to ~/Library/Dictionaries.
   (PS: These instructions are for Xcode 3.2.6. I keep it around for little projects like this.)

From Terminal

1. Copy your XDXF file into the xdxf folder.
2. Run the following command: OUTPUT_NAME="<xdxf>" make
   (Where <xdxf> is whatever your XDXF file is named (less the .xdxf extension).)
3. Copy the temp/OUTPUT_NAME.dictionary file to ~/Library/Dictionaries.
