    Does the job, indexes .BGL files like a boss, and can add more sources (Wikipedia) or dictionaries.

    Goldendict is good, but is not the same as Babylon. Babylon is strictly a translator and not trying to be like wikipedia.

    the look and feel is similar, and it added not too long ago professional dictionaries look ups such as 'le petit robert' and the 'michaelis'. Mostly it worked fine and didn't demand no paying upgrades. Pure wholehearted gift from those gifted programmers.
