Hello,

As existing DictionaryReader.app is based on the dict echosystem, which is tied to English readers, we do not have a consistent French Dictionary Lookup. I think to create this new French Lookup Dictionary application and service. So I need to search from an online service by URL like the one provided by the Univeristy of Chicago, aka the famous DVLF:
By example, an URL like: https://dvlf.uchicago.edu/mot/%C3%A9pierrer

I created a simple interface with a textfiled (motif), a searchButton and a TexTView to display the result.

My questions:
- Does exist an in-purpose class/method to fetch the URL and get the query back as a string? - If not, is a NStask with 'wget' or 'curl' command and reading then the produced tempfile a good approach?

Best regards,
Patrick
