dictfmt

utility to format a file for use by a dictd server

This package provides dictfmt. This utility can convert an input file to a dictionary database that conforms to the DICT protocol, and create a corresponding index file. The package also provides dictunformat, which creates a raw database from a dictionary index and a dictionary database.

dictd-server

(DICT)

dictd

dictionary server

This package provides a TCP-based server that allows a client to access dictionary definitions from a set of natural language dictionary databases. Many dictionary databases have been packaged for use with dictd. They are described in the /usr/share/doc/dictd/README.Debian.gz file. 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 to install at least dict-jargon, dict-foldoc, or dict-vera. The client program, dict, is packaged separately and is needed on all machines that will use the server.

Installation of latest dictfmt_index2suffix command is available for Debian, Ubuntu, Arch, Kali, Fedora and Raspbian. You can copy the command for your OS from above and paste it into your terminal. Once you run the command it will download the 2026 latest package from the repository and install it in your computer/server.
