DictEm is a customizable DICT client for (X)Emacs. It implements all
|
||
|
|
functions of the client part of the DICT protocol (RFC-2229). Unlike
|
||
|
|
dictionary.el, it widely uses autocompletion that is used for
|
||
|
|
selecting a dictionary and search strategy. It also provides several
|
||
|
|
hooks that may be used for buffer postprocessing. Built-in
|
||
|
|
hyperlinking and a highlighting mechanisms are based on this
|
||
|
|
ability. Also, DictEm supports the mechanism of virtual dictionaries
|
||
|
|
that can be used for grouping dictionaries from _different_ DICT
|
||
|
|
servers into the client-side virtual dictionary.
