how can I make dict work with gedit?

["andrei raevsky" <raevsky andrei gmail com>]

Hi,

I am using gedit 2.14.2 under gNewSense 1.1, and dict 1.10.2/rf on
Linux 2.6.15-28-386.  I have put the the command 'dict' in the
external tools manager and I have set it to use the current selection
as input (though I tried current word also) and and the output panel
for the output.  Each time I get an error.

When I use 'current selection' as input I get
-----

When I use 'current word' as input I get nothing, dict seems to be
running, but not output.

How can I fix this?

Thanks,

Andrei
