translator-menu

A tkinter window allowing to find Linguee-traduction in a convenient way

When you execute the program, you can type a word and then press enter to get up to 3 possible translations.

Pressing Escape closes the window.

When installed, the dictionnary is french <--> english but you can modify the comportment by changing the value of the base_url member in the Lingueebackend class.

Installation

Dependencies

You must install all dependencies with

pip install -r requirements.txt

I recommend using a virtual environment such as venv to isolate the dependencies from what is already installed on your system.

Clone the repository

git clone https://github.com/NicolasGresset/translator-menu.git

Then enter the directory with

cd translator-menu

Usage

Simply run

python3 main.py

I suggest to bind the command to a key combination to make it more convenient. I use xbindkey for instance.
