Digital Pali Reader

The Digital Pali Reader (DPR) is a tool much like a hard-copy language reader, facilitating study of the Pali language at an advanced level. Rather than offering a translation for the text being read, a reader usually includes a dictionary with all of the difficult words found in the reader.

Build and test instructions

PaleMoon/Waterfox extension

Each set is in its own subfolder, and each set has a build.sh script that will create the xpi for use with PaleMoon/Waterfox. Better than this, though, is to simply create a link to the set directory in your PaleMoon/Waterfox profile's "extensions" directory.

To do this, create a file for the set, named:

<directory>@yuttadhammo.bhikkhu

with the location of the directory as the first and only line of the file, i.e.:

/path/to/directory

For example, create a file in your profile's "extensions" directory called:

[email protected]

and put the following in it:

/path/to/digitalpalireader

(replacing "/path/to" with the actual path of the digitalpalireader directory on your machine).

Do this for each extension and then restart browser.

DPR Web

To get DRP web running on the local machine:

Install live-server: npm i live-server -g

Run live-server in root folder: live-server

Browse to http://localhost:8080
