Tagaini Jisho 1.2.2 released

Sun, 27 Nov 2022 00:00:00 +0000

Another small bugfix release, Tagaini Jisho 1.2.2 is released.

On top of updating dictionary files to their latest version, this simply fixes a crash when deleting root list entries, and also ddisplays the full paths of lists in the detailed view.

Tagaini Jisho 1.2.1 released

Mon, 11 Jul 2022 00:00:00 +0000

A small bugfix release, Tagaini Jisho 1.2.1 is released!

This release just fixes a crash when printing lists, and updates the dictionary files to the latest version.

Tagaini Jisho 1.2.0 released

Sun, 22 May 2022 00:00:00 +0000

At long last, Tagaini Jisho 1.2.0 is released!

This is the first stable release using Qt5. While this change will be unnoticeable to most users, it will allow us to finally resume more regular releases. The beta series should have been thoroughly tested, but as usual please report any issue with the installers, packages of the software itself.

Thanks to this updated release the Japanese data has also been updated, most notably the Japanese entries of the JMdict. Some users may find that a few entries in their study list have been removed (most likely, merged into another one) - to cope with this, a link to the archived entry will be displayed in such cases, so the new entry can be found.

Tagaini Jisho 1.1.91 released

Mon, 14 Feb 2022 00:00:00 +0000

Here is another pre-release before we move back to a more stable 1.2.0.

Compared to 1.1.90 this release does not bring much, but all the binaries are generated using Github Actions, which will greatly ease the process for future releases. So please help testing and report your experience on the mailing list so the stable 1.2 series can begin!

Tagaini Jisho 1.1.90 released

Sat, 29 Jan 2022 00:00:00 +0000

After a 7 years break in releases, Tagaini is back! This version is limited to a source and Linux binary release, and is intended for enthusiasts to try and confirm nothing has been fundamentally broken before 1.2.0 is released to a wider audience.

The biggest updates of this release are a long-overdue port to Qt5, and a better way to deal with entries deleted from the JMdict. These two issues, along with me getting busy with other things, are what held this release for so long.

Tagaini Jisho 1.0.3 released

Sat, 28 Mar 2015 00:00:00 +0000

Mostly improvements to language support, with a pull of new JMdict and kanjidic2 translation. French translation has particularly been improved thanks to the relentless efforts of the jmdict-i18n project.

SKIP code support has also been re-enabled as licensing issues have been cleared, and various bugs fixed as the effort continues to port the codebase to Qt5 and to support mobile platforms. Go get it while it is fresh!

Tagaini Jisho 1.0.1 released

Sun, 24 Nov 2013 00:00:00 +0000

Tagaini 1.0.1 has been released. This is a very minor update with only two new features:

Ability to search for untagged entry
An option to copy the main writing or reading of an entry to the clipboard directly from its right-click contextual menu

Update from 1.0.0 is purely optional if you are not interested in these features, but can't hurt neither. Head to http://www.tagaini.net/download for download!

Tagaini Jisho 1.0.0 released, on to Tagaini 2!

Sat, 07 Sep 2013 00:00:00 +0000

At long last, I'm glad to announce that Tagaini has reached the 1.0.0 milestone! This release is more symbolic than practical, even though it does bring a reasonable amount of bug fixes, new translations and updated Japanese data.

Why symbolic? Well, Tagaini has been in development since a while now, and the computing landscape has greatly changed since its inception. Initially, the choice has been to build Tagaini around Qt and SQLite to ensure portability across the main desktops. In that respect, this has been a great choice. But now, even though desktop machines remain relevant, tablets and smartphones have become the platforms of choice for a language learning assistant. This means that new features such as transparent network synchronization are becoming a necessity, but not only.

Tagaini Jisho 0.9.4 released

Fri, 11 May 2012 00:00:00 +0000

Just a little more than one month after the previous version - are we going to have regular updates?

Changelog is modest though:

Fixed some issues with kanji popup component highlighting
Fixed romaji-to-kanji converter (digraphs were missing)
Added option to hide English meanings when a translation is available

Nonetheless, hope you will enjoy it while some more exciting stuff is being developed.

Tagaini Jisho 0.9.3 released

Sun, 01 Apr 2012 00:00:00 +0000

The latest Tagaini update is now available! Apart from the usual bug fixes (0.9.2 was not quite bug-free) and new features (at long last, you can now search for Japanese text in romaji), the real novelty of this version resides in its use of new data. JLPT levels have been updated to follow the new levels (thanks to the data provided by the JLPT Resources Page). The interface is now available in many more languages thanks to the translator's work on Transifex (do not hesitate to join if you want to improve the coverage of Tagaini in your language!). Perhaps most important, Tagaini now takes advantage of the JMdict and kanjidic2 internationalization efforts. These are two new projects that aim at translating the Japanese dictionaries from English to other languages. Once again, participating is easy and fun, so please do not hesitate to contribute to them!
