Package: wnpp Severity: normal The current maintainer of dictd, Kirk Hilliard <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, is apparently not active anymore. Therefore, I orphan this package now.
Maintaining a package requires time and skills. Please only adopt this package if you are *sure* you will have enough time and attention to work on it. If you want to be the new maintainer, please see http://www.debian.org/devel/wnpp/index.html#howto-o for detailed instructions how to adopt a package properly.

Many dictionary databases have been packaged for debian. They are discussed in more detail in the file /usr/share/doc/dictd/README.Debian.gz . Either dict-gcide or dict-wn is essential for a useful English language dictionary server. It is strongly recommended that both be installed. If you are interested in computer terminology, it is recommended that one or more of dict-jargon, dict-foldoc, and dict-vera also be installed. . The client program, dict, is packaged in dict*.deb If you are running a server, you will want the client for all machines in your network, and for testing server operations.

Since it is TCP based, it can access servers on the local host, on a local network, or on the Internet. . The DICT Development Group maintains several public servers which can be accessed from any machine connected to the Internet. The default configuration is to query one of these servers first, but this may be changed in the configuration file /etc/dict.conf. . Queries may be customized by numerous command line options, including specifying the database(s) to be queried and the search strategy to be used. . dict includes dictl, which simplifies using utf-8 encoded dictionaries with terminals that do not support utf-8.

An extension to the gzip file format allows for random access to chunks of about 57kb without the overhead of decompressing the entire file. This package also includes dictunzip to decompress dictzipped files and dictzcat for viewing dictzipped files.
