./textproc/dict-server, Dictionary Service Protocol server

[ CVSweb ] [ Homepage ] [ RSS ] [ Required by ] [ Add to tracker ]

Branch: CURRENT, Version: 1.13.3, Package name: dict-server-1.13.3, Maintainer: cheusov

The Dictionary Server Protocol (DICT) is a TCP transaction based
query/response protocol that allows a client to access dictionary
definitions from a set of natural language dictionary databases.

dictd(8) is a server which supports the DICT protocol.

dictzip(1) is a compression program which creates compressed files in the
gzip format (see RFC 1952). However, unlike gzip(1), dictzip(1) compresses
the file in pieces and stores an index to the pieces in the gzip header.
This allows random access to the file at the granularity of the compressed
pieces (currently about 64kB) while maintaining good compression ratios
(within 5% of the expected ratio for dictionary data). dictd(8) uses files
stored in this format.

Update dict-client and dictd-server to 1.13.0

  dictd:
       * add support for IPv6 (the default is IPv4)
         - Add global configuration option "address_family" and
           command line options --address-family
         - Options "listen_to" and --listen-to accepts host name
           in addition to IP address, "*" means "bind to all \ 
interfaces".
  dict:
       * add support for IPv6.
         - New command line options -4 and -6.
         - dict + dict:// URL: add support for IPv6 address
           surrounded by [ and ] symbols
  dictfmt:
       * fix overlap of source and destination buffers in memcpy(3).
         Use memmove(3) instead. This fixes failures on Linux/musl.
       * DICTFMT_SORT environment variable may be used for
         setting non-default sort(1)

  Fix build on recent Solaris/IllumOS (missing -lnsl at link time)

  Remove support for --use-dictorg and socks5. Clean-ups for build system.

  Remove support for non-utf8 dictionaries.

  tests:
      * new test for dictd as a daemon
      * always use @AWK@
      * test/dictzip_test.in: avoid printing binary \0. This fixes test on some \ 
systems
