Dictionary links

Tap Add to put a dictionary into wudict. To share dictionaries, send a link to a single dictionary, a whole folder or a list, and the person you send it to chooses what to install.

wudict share link generator

Paste a link to a dictionary file, a web folder of dictionaries or a .txt list - or several links, one per line, such as a dictionary's files on Google Drive - and copy the share link. Whoever opens it gets the dictionaries in wudict. How these links work is explained further down.

How share links work

Put https://legbehindneck.com/wudict# in front of a link. On an Android phone with wudict, tapping it opens wudict; anywhere else it opens this page.

One dictionary
A link to a dictionary file or an archive of one.
https://legbehindneck.com/wudict#https://download.freedict.org/dictionaries/eng-deu/1.9-fd1/freedict-eng-deu-1.9-fd1.slob
A folder
A link to a web folder that lists dictionary files, or to a Nextcloud shared folder. Everything in it is offered, and the person chooses.
https://legbehindneck.com/wudict#https://example.org/dictionaries/
A list
A link to a text file with one file name or link per line.
https://legbehindneck.com/wudict#https://example.org/dictionaries/list.txt
Several files
Several links after #, separated by commas. Use this for files that are not in a shared folder, such as a dictionary and its .mdd on Google Drive.
https://legbehindneck.com/wudict#https://drive.google.com/file/d/…/view,https://drive.google.com/file/d/…/view
On legbehindneck.com
For files on this site, the link after # can start at the path.

List files

Any name will do, as long as it ends in .txt, which is what makes a web server send it as text. One entry per line, as a file name next to the list or as a full link. A line starting with # gives the collection its title. Blank lines are ignored.

In a folder of dictionaries, ls -1 > list.txt writes one.
