Consult the documentation for myprog - whatever that is.

If whoever wrote it was kind enough to write a man page for it, then use man myprog, or an info page - use info myprog, otherwise read whatever documentation there is for myprog.

-d is an option to the program, and dictionary is an argument to that option. You're supposed to replace dictionary with, I presume, the name of a dictionary.

I'm closing this thread. Please read the documentation for the program you are referring to. If you need help understanding the general concepts then consult our man pages, which contain hundreds of commands, most of which take options just like "myprog" - whatever that is - does.

CWDREG(1)						      General Commands Manual							 CWDREG(1)

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.
