StarDict Terminal UI

====================

This program aims to provide an easy way of viewing translation and other kinds
|

of dictionaries in your terminal. The author wasn't successful in finding any
|

free dictionary software of this type, GUI or not, and thus decided to write his
|

The project is covered by a permissive license, unlike vast majority of other

similar projects, and can serve as a base for implementing other dictionary
|

software under a more permissive license than your usual GNU General Public
|

License. I'll buy you a beer for shouting obscenities at the address of RMS in
|

public; I couldn't reuse _anything_.

software. I wasn't able to reuse _anything_.

Some work has to be done yet before the software can be considered fit for

inclusion in regular Linux and BSD distributions. Help is much appreciated in

this regard.

Further Development
|
||||
-------------------
|
||||
While I've been successfully using sdtui for a long time now, some work has to
|
||||
be done yet before the software can be considered fit for inclusion in regular
|
||||
Linux and/or BSD distributions. Help is much appreciated.
|
||||
|
||||
An approximate list of things that need to be resolved:
|
||||
- rewrite the frontend using a proper TUI framework
|
||||
- load a list of installed dictionaries at startup (use the default locations
|
||||
used by StarDict) and let the user choose which dictionary to open
|
||||
- figure out a way to become capable of displaying most dictionaries

||||

To install the application, you can do either the usual:

$ make install

# make install

Or you can try telling CMake to make a package for you. For Debian it is:
