EBWin is a dictionary format that is popular against Japan. There are many well known Japanese dictionary that is already available in EBWin's CATALOG format. Initially there were no known library for UWP application that could read the CATALOG format. So I decided to made one. Ported it from the original C library. And the was a very tedious task as it almost require me to rewrite the entire stuff.
You can find them in here.
Installing was easy. Just go to Settings -> EBWin. And click "Install new dictionary", after you finish selecting the CATOLOG directory. The program will automatically determine what format it is. If it could be installed. A "Confirm Install" butto will appeared. Just press it and you are done.
Currently there is only one way to use the dictionary but I could, provide an area for word searching an such. Depends on how demanding this feature was. Then I will, implement it eventually.
In Content Reader, right click/press and hold the paragraph. A context menu will appeared. Select "Search Words".
Highlight the words and it will automatically search the words for you. There is a know bug in mobile version that highlighting for the first time would not trigger the search. In this case just highlight it again and it will search.
The supported formats are currently EPWING and PLAIN format. ebz is also supported.
For compressed version, using "Speed up index searching" will make the dictionary fail. I haven't figure out how to implements speed-up index yet. So try disabling speed-up via ebshrink:
( ebshrink is available in EBWin4 at official EBWin's website )
