The online Lewis and Short at the Perseus project
(http://www.perseus.tufts.edu/cgi-bin/resolveform?lang=Latin) has
vowel length marked.  In the full version, long vowels are macronned
and short vowels are breve'd; in the Elementary version, only the long
vowels are marked.  There are some other texts where long vowels are
unmarked but short vowels are marked as such, so you can still
distinguish.
