Word-Hoard

Word-Hoard is a project mainly written in Python, it's free.

Simple program intended to help learn new words easily. Given a list of words in text files, loops through them at random, fetches definition and shows pop-up notification in Ubuntu.

This is just a dummy README, work-in-progress.

To run this script, specify the directory containing text files having words separated by newlines.

Example:

Directory: /home/user/words

Files: /home/user/words/foo, /home/user/words/bar, /home/user/words/blah.txt

File contents: word1 word2 word3 wordN

pid file, log file and tempDefinition file are all written to the same directory where the source files reside.
