Release Notes: This version features a rewritten backend that is much much cleaner. It supports searching stroke ranges (s1-2, for example). mecab is now used to enable smart searches using morphology to find root forms of verbs and to split up words. The program has been converted to use GMenu, which should make the menus feel native on Ubuntu, Mac OS, GNOME3, Windows, etc., no matter the style. Menus can now be hidden, and the program now features a menu button a la Google Chrome. You can optionally define the tabs bar to always show. The program only uses symbolic icons if they are detected.

All users need to update their package dependencies.

Release Notes: Since 3.2.0, there have been numerous interface tweaks to make it a bit more subtle, with less color. A vocabulary study component has been added and integrated, including flashcard study and scoring. There have been a few fixes for mingw/cygwin support for when spellcheck occurs or when installing a dictionary. Lots of old deprecated stuff has been removed from gtk+-3.2. Various bugs have been fixed, and the application made generally more fun to use. Windows users will get a prebuilt binary once official gtk3 binaries for mingw are released.

Release Notes: This is the first version to allow compilation on Windows. The search thread was fixed so it no longer runs in a timer, but in another thread. GConf has been dropped for GSettings. The program compiles with the GTK_DEPRICATED_DISABLE flag on. The kanjisidebar is now a tooltip. There has been a bit of scaling back on the interface. Searches now update dynamically as you type.

Release Notes: The results have been worked to have better, easier to skim formatting. New German, French, and Spanish dictionaries have been added. The dictionaries are now user-organizable.
