Typhon: eBook reader with Rikai dictionary lookup for Android

#8
I published a new Alpha version in closed testing. This means that the people who already downloaded the beta can normally see the update but if you want to install the alpha from scratch shoot me an e-mail.
So this version adds a configuration interface where you can add, remove, configure and reorder dictionaries.
Nihongo wordnet is there now. Remember that with this configuration interface you can add several times the same dictionary with different configurations. This means that you can have an instance of wordnet that shows in English and another in Japanese. Wordnet supports showing examples sentences and synynoms and deinflection as well! I plugged rikai's deinflection with it and it turns out to work pretty well thanks to the available and necessary "part of speech" in the word entries! You can disable those in the configuration if they do not interest you.
A new interface allows you to swipe between dictionaries in the order you configured your dictionaries.
And that's all folks!
I expect this version to be a little bit more experimental, there's a huge refactoring behind this new version, so please consider that before upgrading because it might be frustrating for you, that's why I closed the list of testers… I will release it soon enough anyway and EPWING is on the way. It already works but I would like to polish it a little more, I am just missing some time.
