  46                                                 <li>whitestorkgui - the graphical user interface</ul></p>
  47                                                 <p><b>Nokia 770 installation<br><br></b>
  48                                                 In order to install our application make the following steps:<br>
  49 <ul><b>1.</b> Download the binary packages from our download section<br>

  61 <p>Our application allows for using various parsing engines, so that different dictionary formats could be used. We have included a XDXF format parsing engine to provide an example and to make it usable.<br></p>
  62
  63 <p><b>Installing new dictionaries</b>
  64
  65 <ul>Dictionaries in WhiteStork are files containing the words database. For now we have only included a package containing a XDXF format parser. You are welcome to contribute new parsing engines and we hope you will find our API documentation useful in development process. In order to add new dictionaries you'll have to download files containing the words database and make sure you have the appropriate parsing engine installed. As far as the XDXF format is concerned, they can be found under this address: <a href="http://xdxf.revdanica.com/down/">http://xdxf.revdanica.com/down/</a>
  66 Place the dictionary wherever you wish, however it has to be reachable by our application. In order to register new file in our dictionary, choose the Load Dictionary option from the application menu. To make it usable you'll have to optimize it, otherwise you won't be able to use it in your searches. If you would like to exclude a dictionary from searching, use the Select Dictionary option from the menu and check/uncheck a box next to your desired file.
  67 In order to unregister dictionary from our application, use the Remove Dictionary option. This will not erase the file however, you will have to do it manually.</ul></p>
