Trying to find a "Reverse EDICT" (or other such dictionaries)
The only one that I could come upon was GENE95 ( http://www.namazu.org/~tsuchiya/sdic/data/gene.html )
I'm not sure how good it is, or comprehensive, but it seems to be about half the size of edict, which is a little disappointing...

This is more to help my Japanese friends learn English than me learning Japanese. We have study groups every once and again, and I thought something like this could be helpful.

What's wrong with using EDICT for looking up English -> Japanese?

That's a...very good question...now that you mention it

I hoping to find some sort of dictionary that I could easily convert to work with Rikaichan, which...isn't too hard to do, if I can find a dictionary that works well.

This came up just recently. bodhisamaya mentioned MouseoverDictionary, so maybe that will help your Japanese friends.

Indeed, that looks like pretty much exactly what I would have liked to have found.
Thanks a lot!

Mmhmm, no problem.
