Dictionary Browser Implemented!

I got some good news for the DictionaryForMIDs (the very cool dictionary/translator midlet for j2me compatible phones) community today. Basically its an implementation and integration of a FilePicker using codes borrowed from WTK examples and elsewhere.

Good news. I’ve got the browser implemented and working.

My next step will be the file decompression. I already have some J2SE codes to compress to an archive- we could use it to extra from old jars and place them in new files.

My current implementation I working with is tar with zlib compression. We might be able to implement zip/jar support, but I sort of given up on it at the moment. Infact, tar with zlib gives greater compression, although my guess is its slower.
