Dilo overview
Dilo looks up words at web dictionaries and shows the English/French/Spanish or German translation of that word. It is kind of comparable to "Babylon"® for Windows®, but uses a public web-dictionary instead of having a local one.
Dilo is basically concentrated on the German language, i.e. all translation are from/to German. Specifically, there is no translation e.g. between French and English or English and Spanish.

Hmmmh, all of the sudden stopped working properly again on 10.6.8.
No matter what search term I enter, I always get a translation list with 21 items starting with:
"umpteen also: umpsteen adj. [coll.]"
and ending with:
"extending over several weeks"
Same list on all languages. Anyone else having this behaviour?

Any chances to make it run on Tiger again? Programm starts on Tiger, but can't find any translations.

I'm a translator for English, French and German and can't do without Dilo anymore! I'm using CAT tools for my translations and they don't always contain a dictionary. So instead of changing to the browser window to look words up on Leo, I need two keystrokes to get the results with Dilo. The small Dilo window is always open in a corner of my screen. Thanks a lot!!

As an American living in Germany I use a German English dictionary on a daily basis. Dilo provides an unbelievably quick interface to the best dictionary around. Translating slang, sayings, and colloquialisms is easier with Dilo than any other paper or electronic dictionary I've used. I would gladly pay $30 dollars for this program, but won't argue with their current pricing scheme.

Dilo doesn't work anymore now that dict.leo.org has switched to a new layout. It would be really nice if there was an update.

Dilo has suddenly stopped working (12th October 2004) - have there been changes at LEO??
Pretty please fix this as one of my key applications used daily...

It's just a great translation help that works perfect.
May we expect the outcoming of a Dilo for french/german as well, since Leo offers this now?

Brilliant. Works as described, never crashes. Thanx!
One improvement, if you ever want to work some more on it: A drop-down list of previously searched words, and/or an auto-complete function in the search field.
But I am not quibbling, this does the job better than many paid-for translators, as long as you have an internet connection, thanks to the people at leo.org
