Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist * Package name : dictionary-el Version : 1.8.3 Upstream Author : Torsten Hilbrich <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> * URL : http://www.myrkr.in-berlin.de/dictionary/ * License : GPL Description : Dictionary Client for Emacs dictionary-el is a DICT (RFC 2229) client for (X)Emacs, with support for brace-delimited cross references and UTF-8-encoded entries.
Rationale: While this package might not be as general as lookup-el, it has some key advantages over the latter: * Because it only supports the one protocol, it is several times smaller. * Its documentation is in English rather than Japanese, making the package accessible to a wider audience. * It doesn't insist on interpreting non-ASCII characters as Japanese. -- Aaron M.
