Import xml

Hi,
thanks for the great app. After downloading the app I tried to import my vocab from dict.cc.
I was kind of complex. here is a guide you may add it to the help or wiki :)

° substitute spechial chars "&", "<", ">"
°. table 5 colums

<vocable><first_meaning><value>
language1
</value></first_meaning><second_meaning><value>
language2
</value></second_meaning></vocable>

° paste it in an editor (textpad, notepad++)

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-16' standalone='yes' ?>
<units>
  <unit>
    <title>###YOUR UNITNAME###</title>
        <vocables>
###past table###
    </vocables>
  </unit>
</units>

° save it as myvocabfile.xml encoding UTF-8 and without BOM
° Import it in the app

it was very confusing to save the file as utf-8 while the xml-tag says "I'm UTF-16" :D
What about an Import feature from Dict.cc to skip this mess ?
Have a nice day

Thank you for this guide!
What do you mean by "Import 5 tables"?
I already thought about implementing an import function, but they don't allow you to do that. (At least the last time I checked)

Hi,
I made with an excel table with 5 colums.
In fact I working on a Javatool to automate all these steps.
i'll upload it if it's useable.
I'm not used to app-development so if you like you can add it to the app.
Ok that's sad dictcc is a cool dictionary. But an open Api would be nice.

Cool! I will have a look if they allow that now.

take a look, if you miss any functionality just ask.

I finally get on with the project, but I decided to rewrite most of the code.
It may take some time until I get to this.
But thank you very much for this contribution!
