One paying attention to line from translated entries (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

listener

'one paying attention' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'line from translated entries' is the wordplay.
'line' becomes 'l' (**).
'from' says to put letters next to each other.
'translated' is an anagram indicator.
'entries' with letters rearranged gives 'istener'.
'l'+'istener'='LISTENER'

'to' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for listener that I've seen before include "One who hears" , "One hearing" , "Tough crossword" , "Puzzle" , "Dead body" .)

I've seen this clue in the Irish Times (Crosaire) and the Irish Times.
