Description : RFC 2229 compliant modular dictionary server
Dico is an implementation of DICT server (RFC 2229). It is fully
modular: the daemon itself (dicod) provides only the server
functionality, but it knows nothing about database formats. Actual
searches are performed by functions supplied in loadable modules. A
single module can serve one or more databases.
The package includes several modules for searching in different
dictionary databases, among them a module for dict.org databases and a
module for databases in Emacs "outline" format.
A console client program, `dico', is also included.
A module for lookups in Jim Breen's Kanjidic and Edict databases will
be added in future.
