NAME

       cwdreg - To register characters/words into the binary format
		dictionary.

SYNOPSIS

       cwdreg	[-D server ]   -n envname
		-d dicno < textdic
       OR
       cwdreg	[-D server ]   -n envname
		-L filename < textdic

DEFAULT PATH

       /usr/local/bin/cWnn4/cwdreg

DESCRIPTION

       This function allows user to register characters/words into the specified binary dictionary, with either dictionary number dicno or dictio-
       nary filename filename specified.

       server is the machine name of the server.  If this is not specified, the default cserver indicated by the environment variable CSERVER will
       be taken.

       "-n envname "  must be  specified.  envname is the environment name.  You may execute "cwnnstat -E" to see the current environment name.

       Either "-d dicno " or "-L filename " must be specified.
       dicno  is  the  dictionary  number.   filename  is  the filename of the dictionary.  "-L" is used for when the dictionary is from the local
       machine.

       "<" means to pipe the textdic as an input to "cwdreg" command.

       textdic is the text file which user enters the characters/words to be registered.   The format of this text file must be the same  as  that
       in the system text format dictionary.  That is,
	--------------------------------------------------
       |  Pinyin      Word	 Cixing        Frequency  |
       |   :	       :	  :		 :	  |
	--------------------------------------------------
       Refer to cWnn manual for details on dictionary.
       By using "cwdreg", all the characters/words in textdic will be registered into the specified binary dictionary permanently.

NOTE

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