dictl

DICTL(1)						      General Commands Manual							  DICTL(1)

NAME

       dictl - wrapper script for dict that permits using utf-8 encoded dictionaries on a terminal that is not utf-8 aware.

SYNOPSIS

       dictl [OPTIONS] [word]

Description
       dictl  calls  dict  with  the  arguments given on the command line.  dictl takes the value of the environment variable DICTL_CHARSET as the
       user's preferred character set.	If this variable is empty, dictl attempts to determine the character set to be used from the output of the
       locale command.

       Arguments  passed  to  dictl  including	word  are converted from the user's preferred character set to server's character set specified by
       DICTL_SERVER_CHARSET variable (utf-8 if it is unset), and passed to dict.  The server's output from dict is converted to  the  user's  pre-
       ferred character set.

       NOTE: Because iconv omits characters from output that are invalid,
       recode -f is used for character set conversions by default.  If you prefer iconv, set DICTL_USE_ICONV variable to non-empty string.  If you
       want to use konwert, set DICTL_USE_KONWERT to non-empty string.

       Because recode, iconv and konwert do not support conversion to or from the "C" or "POSIX" locales, it is recommended that all  users  whose
       locale is "C" or "POSIX", set DICTL_CHARSET to "latin1" (ISO_8859-1).

OPTIONS

       dictl accepts all dict options as described in dict(1).
