mkdic - Tool for creating a user dictionary
Contents
Description
mkdic creates user dictionary named remote-dic in the user dictionary directory of the remote host, on
which cannaserver(1M) is in operation. Dictionary file name remote-dic is assigned to this file at this
time.
If the - and -l option isn't specified, mkdic creates an empty dictionary.
If the - option is specified, the standard input will be used as the dictionary file. If the -l option is
specified, local-file will be used as the dictionary file.
If the user dictionary directory does not exist, it will be created.
Dictionary directory file — dics.dir — is rewritten automatically after the registering. The registered
dictionary can thus be used by writing the dictionary name into the customize file.
Examples
(1) If you want to creat an empty dictionary file:
% mkdic test
(2) If you want to register the input data from the standard input:
% mkdic test -
Registers the input data from the standard input, in the user dictionary directory under dictionary name
``test''. The following line is then added to dictionary directory file — dics.dir — :
user1.t(.mwd) -test-
(3) If the dictionary file is specified:
% mkdic test -l test1.t
Registers independent-word dictionary file ``test1.t'' in the remote host's user dictionary directory
under dictionary name ``test''. The following line is then added to dics.dir:
user1.t(.mvd) -test-
user1.t is a dictionary file name generated automatically by the system.
