An interface to look up translations on dict.cc without leaving emacs.

You can get it from melpa:

M-x package-install dictcc

The main command in this package is dictcc, which prompts you for a query and lets you pick a translation through a completion interface (either ivy, helm or completing-read). There is another convenience command dictcc-at-point that searches for the word at point or the content of an active region.

• dictcc-source-lang: First language to look up words in (Default "en")

• dictcc-destination-lang: Second language to look up words in (Default "de")

  Despite the names source and destination, dictcc actually just looks up queries in both languages at once. This means that it does not matter if you specify the attributes as "de" and "fr" or "fr" and "de". There is, however, a difference between these terms when it comes to which language to insert into the buffer.

• dictcc-completion-backend: Which completion backend to use (Default 'ivy). If you have helm installed but not ivy, it will be set to 'helm automatically. If you want to use neither helm, nor ivy, setting the variable to completing-read will make use of Emacs's default completion system.
