CDTOA(1)						      General Commands Manual							  CDTOA(1)

NAME

       cdtoa - To convert the binary format of a dictionary back to
	       text format.

SYNOPSIS

       cdtoa  [-n] [-s] [-z] [-e] [-E] infilename
	      [-h cixingfile ]	[ usagefreqfile ]

DEFAULT PATH

       /usr/local/bin/cWnn4/cdtoa

DESCRIPTION

       To convert the binary format of the dictionary to text
       format, and output to standard output(stdout).

       infilename is the name of the input binary format
       dictionary.

       The output may be piped into a file by using the ">"
       command.  For example,
	       cdtoa  dict.dic	>  dict.u
       "dict.u" here is the output text format dictionary, while the "dict.dic" is the input binary format dictionary.

       usagefreqfile  may  indicate  more  than one user usage frequency files (for a particular user).  These usage frequency information will be
       reflected in the text format dictionary created.

OPTIONS

       -s     To order the entries in text dictionary according to Pinyin or Zhuyin.

       -n     To attach sequence numbers to the output.

       -z     To convert the binary format back to text format in Zhuyin.
	      (Note: default is Pinyin)

       -e     If the Hanzi inside the text dictionary contains characters such as space and  tab,  they  will  be  compacted  to  special  format.
	      (Default)

       -E     If the Hanzi inside the text dictionary contains characters such as space and tab, they will NOT be compacted to special format.

       -h     cixingfile
	      To specify the Cixing definition file.

NOTE

       1.     The parts in [ ] are options.  They may be omitted.

       2.     The Pinyin and Zhuyin dictionary has the same format.

       3.     The default conversion result of the text dictionary is in Pinyin.
