Hi guys?

Ive tried a bunch of different japanese dictionary applications (for win or linux) such as kiten, gjisho, etc... but my favorite number one is Jwpce. It has everything I need, but its very old. Anyone else use jwpce? (What font do you use? Im a bit bored of the 24x24 font).

Just curious

I guess it depends on your needs, but a combination of Lingoes for rikaichan like dictionary pop ups and an EPWING reader for everything else works for me. Stardict is also popular.

Good suggestions. I dont mind firefox dictionaries, i love rikaichan.

Does anyone have any advanced experience with jwpce? Im trying to find a really good kanji font that is compatible with jwpce besides the usual ms mincho. Any ideas? Much appreciated!

I still use JWPce for everything outside browser, when I stumble upon a new word I add it to one of the files I made (depends on the source) - and it's really easy to make cards later.

Don't forget to update your dictionary file - you can find newest version here: http://ftp.monash.edu.au/pub/nihongo/edict.zip

I've been using JWPce since 1999, and I still use it constantly for EDICT copypaste; I know I can use jisho.org but sometimes I just like offline programs.

For some reason I keep wanting to read the title as Jpwned or something.

I still use Jwpce too. Haven't gotten the hang of Lingoes, and J>J dictionaries aren't nearly as quick and efficient to use... Jwpce's not just handy as a dictionary, I use it to look up kanji by radical and stuff a lot too.

Wow, you can update the edict! Awesome thanks for the information guys! Jwpce is nice and works in linux wine really nicely as well!
