DING(1) 							 Debian GNU/Linux							   DING(1)

NAME

       ding - dictionary lookup program for Unix

SYNOPSIS

       ding [options] [phrase]

DESCRIPTION

       ding is a dictionary lookup program for X Windows/Unix. It comes with a German-English dictionary with about 270,000 entries.

       It is based on Tk version >= 8.3 and uses the agrep(1) or egrep(1) tools for searching.

       In addition to this ding can also search using ispell(1) and dict(1).

       It  has	many  configuration  options,  such as search preferences, interface language (English or German), colors. It has history and help
       functions and comes with useful key and mouse bindings for quick and easy lookups.

       If you enter some word or phrase as command line argument, ding will start up with a translation of this word/phrase.

OPTIONS

       -x, --selection
	      Start searching for selected word (X selection).

       -m, --mini
	      Start with minimal size (search form only).

       -r, --remote
	      Start search in an already running program.

       -R, --remote-new
	      Start search in an already running program or start a new program.

       --noconf
	      Do not save preferences

       -D #, --debug #
	      Start with debug output, # = number (1..15).

USAGE

       It's very simple: Start ding (via KDE menu "Tools" or via command line), type in search word, press ENTER, read results. Search further	by
       double-clicking	a word, or select a word in another window and drop it by clicking with mouse button 2 over the "ding window". For further
       information consult the program help by pressing F1.
