Analysis
ordbogen.com currently offers a Windows and a web client. A simple search Widget has been developed. This widget simply calls the search script on the website as a result of a keypress.
The catch...You need to login to the service from the webpage, since it's probably cookie based, you'll only need to do this rarely, but this is unclear at this point.
Possible solutions:
- Porting of the Windows client (we'll need the source code)
- Reverse engineering
- "Login client" that can be automated
