trick on MAC OS X

Today I installed the Stardict 3.0.1 on my Macbook. I changed some default settings but it seemed that these changes are lost after I close the application. Then I realized that it could be a very stupid "bug". I don't have the write privilege on the directory where the preference file stores!

running the application as root solved the problem.

1.sudo open .../Stardict.app.
2. change the preference.
3. close the program.

That's it!
