NAME

       dictfmt_index2word - Creates a .word index file from a DICTD database .index file

SYNOPSIS

       dictfmt_index2word [OPTIONS] [index_file]

DESCRIPTION

       dictfmt_index2word  creates  a  word index file on stdout for the index file given on stdin or the command line.  A word index file indexes

       name>.word, but this is not mandatory as long as the proper name is used in the dictd configuration file.

OPTIONS

       --help displays a usage message and exits

       --locale locale
	      use locale for sorting the .word file. If this option is omitted, the default locale "C" is used.

       index_file
	      the .index file to be converted.
