Here is the main menu:

- File

- Add Dictionary
- This lets you browse for a dictionary file to load:

Once loaded, the dictionary is ready to use, and it will be the next time you run JLookUp, as well.
NOTE: Be careful when loading a dictionary. JLookUp does NOT check to see if the file is a valid EDICT-format dictionary. If you load something that is not valid (or a dictionary that has a typo or two), you will get BAD results. You'll want to go through and fix any errors in the dictionary yourself if this happens (I know I did...). Also, most EDICT files don't have an extention, so JLookUp will warn you if you pick a file with and extention.
NOTE: You cannot use this command when 1) another dictionary is loading, or 2) a search is going on. Press Escape to cancel the current loading of a dictionary
- Exit
- This is the same as ALT+F4, closing the window, or, in other words, quitting out or closing the application. All of your settings are saved at this time.

If a dictionary is checked, then it will be used for searching.

- Check for Updates
- This will let JLookUp check for updates. It will first check aumaan.home.comcast.net and then jlookup.aumaan.no-ip.org, and, if it can find any information, it will put the information in the Search Window.

- About
- This displays the About box, which basically just tells you what version it is and how to contact me.
