The old post has become obsolete and I removed it. Today it’s a bit more straightforward and easier to get a English-Thai-English dictionary installed on Linux (and Windows).
The original Nectec portal (registration is now required) referenced in the old post is here:

However, it’s probably best to install StarDict from a repo manager for your system.
Then download the dictionary files from NecTec, unzip and put them into your dic folder (on OpenSuse 11.4 it’s is at /usr/share/stardict/dic/) , and off you go.
Here is an older lexitron rpm package that installs flawlessly on OpenSuse 11.4 and gives you a small and snappy English-Thai-English dictionary on OpenSuse. I use it more often than the slow and intrusive StarDict.
