PSPedict is a general Japanese <-> English dictionary with many japanese Japanese entries. You can search in English via the On Screen Keyboard (OSK), or in Japanese using Hiragana / Katakana. It is also possible to search using Kanji from a Kanji Popup window, or when navigating through the Kanjidic fil. You can save and load found sets, and store up to 2000 entries in each of the four study lists.

Changes:

– Kanji seach by SKIP code: This works only with the English OSK (triangle). Start the input with #. Next write the SKIP code separated by spaces. For example, input #1 4 5 searches kanjis that belong to the first pattern. Left character should have 4 strokes and right 5 strokes. You may also use number 0 as a meaning of anything.

– Kanji search by stroke count: Again you need to use the English OSK and start the input with #. Then comes the number of strokes. E.g. #3 searches kanjis that have a stroke count of 3.

– Kanji search by SKIP and stroke count: You may combine the previous two methods by writing the SKIP code first and then the stroke count. E.g. #1 0 0 5 searches all kanjis that belong to the pattern 1 and have a stroke count of 5.

– Hide kanji/kana/description: Added a new option to hide these from every menu.

– Custom dictionary: A new dictionary that the user may use for adding his/her own words and definitions. You may use JWPce for this. The file already has a few examples, so you know what you should be doing. Remember to save the file as custom.sjs if you don’t overwrite the existing one.

– Randomize Study List: While in Study List, press select. Not a perfect algorithm, but works. The location of the arrow selection has some effect.

– Some minor bugs: There are some minor bugs when the new features are used; some I could even call as “features”. E.g. kanjidic has a habit to randomize when the new search method is used. Hey, it may be a good thing! Shouldn’t have any major ones, though. However, I am already aware of a few not-completely-user-friendly bugs. Those are pretty minor, nevertheless.

BootMii Configuration Editor llows you to change the values in the /bootmii/bootmii.ini file without having to take out the SD card and edit it on a PC.

Changes:

– Implementation Of BootMii Switch functionality. Can enable/disable BootMii through the editor by renaming the directory from /bootmii to /~bootmii and vice versa
– If /bootmii and /~bootmii exist you are given the option to switch the directories allowing you to use an alternate MINI implementation such as MIKE.
– If bootmii.ini exists in both directories you are given the choice of which to edit.
– The homebrew channel icon is swapped depending on the mode to give an indication of the bootmii status. A green circle indicates bootmii is enabled, a red circle indicates bootmii is disabled, and an orange circle indicates you are running in switch mode.
– Several fixes to resolve various minor issues.

corenting has updated his game “Plus Or Minus DS”.

Quote:

The DS will think to a number between 40 and 70. You will have to find it. Choose a number (always between 40 and 70 of course) and press A. The DS will say to you Plus if the number is higher than the one you choose. The DS will say to you Minus if the number is lower than the one you choose. The game continues like that until you find the good number.

A mad scientist decided he wanted a pet and bought a fish. Being that he’s a mad scientist, he can’t just have any normal tank, though. He built a special one where the coral attacks you, the walls close in to crush you, and the water slowly drains out! Beware, the mad scientist will only revive you three times before he gets bored and leaves you dead for good!

You guide the fish with the joystick and navigate through the coral gaps. If you hit the coral while in the left half of the screen the left side of the tank closes in on you. If you hit the coral while in the right half of the screen the right side closes in on you.
