Hello, guys.
I recently found out about the Rikaisama Firefox extension and I think it's fantastic. Thanks cb4960 for this useful extension!
I think some features would be very useful to me (and maybe to others too). The main one would be the first item in the wishlist at http://rikaisama.sourceforge.net/wishlist.html.
1. Ability to choose which entry to save instead of always picking the first entry.
So I decided to contribute to the community and created a Rikaisama fork on github where I can develop new features useful to me. Some of these features maybe will be useful just to me, but other ones surely will be useful to others, so maybe cb4960 can reintegrate these on the original Rikaisama code base.
The repository is located at https://github.com/txgio/orikaisama
The first feature I developed is the ability to choose which entry to save. You can download the alpha release .xpi at:
https://github.com/txgio/orikaisama/rele....0-alpha.1
I need to test it more thoroughly, but if you want to help on the testing, the .xpi is not signed yet so you may need to disable extension signature checking (about:config > xpinstall.signatures.required to false)
It works by showing an arrow next to the current entry, which is the entry on which the save, play audio, copy to clipboard and anki import operations will be done.

You can move the arrow one entry up or down using the same Epwing next/previous entry shorcuts (by default [ and ]).
The branch with this new feature is the rikaichan-entry-chooser.
I hope it can be useful to someone.
Another feature I plan to work on is the development of a version 2 EDICT Japanese-English dictionary extension, which is more complete than the current version 1 available at http://www.polarcloud.com/.
