Right now the list of available dictionaries is downloaded from
www.abisource.com when needed, so that information isn't available to us
before we do that. When that list have been downloaded (during a
dictionary download) it's cached in the abi $HOME directory, so then
we're free to use it (of course, it may not be totally accurate, not
being the latest version and all). A simple workaround would be a
menu-option somewhere "Download updated dictionary-list".
Take care
