NAME
mkdic - Tool for creating a user dictionary
SYNOPSIS
mkdic [{-cs|-cannaserver} canna-server] [-s] [- | -l local-file]
remote-dic
DESCRIPTION
mkdic creates user dictionary named remote-dic in the user dictionary
directory of the remote host, on which cannaserver(1M) is in operation.
Dictionary file name remote-dic is assigned to this file at this time.
If the - and -l option isn’t specified, mkdic creates an empty
dictionary.
If the - option is specified, the standard input will be used as the
dictionary file. If the -l option is specified, local-file will be used
as the dictionary file.
If the user dictionary directory does not exist, it will be created.
Dictionary directory file — dics.dir — is rewritten automatically after
the registering. The registered dictionary can thus be used by writing
the dictionary name into the customize file.
OPTIONS
-cs canna-server (or -cannaserver canna-server)
Specifies the server machine that contains the dictionary
to be created.
-s Indicates that the dictionary to be created is an adjunct
dictionary. If this option is omitted, the dictionary will
be created as an independent-word one.
-l local-file
Registers the input data from local-file.
- The standard input will be used as the dictionary file.
EXAMPLES
(1) If you want to creat an empty dictionary file:
% mkdic test
(2) If you want to register the input data from the standard input:
% mkdic test -
Registers the input data from the standard input, in the user
dictionary directory under dictionary name ‘‘test’’. The following
line is then added to dictionary directory file — dics.dir — :
user1.t(.mwd) -test-
(3) If the dictionary file is specified:
% mkdic test -l test1.t
Registers independent-word dictionary file ‘‘test1.t’’ in the remote
host’s user dictionary directory under dictionary name ‘‘test’’. The
following line is then added to dics.dir:
user1.t(.mvd) -test-
user1.t is a dictionary file name generated automatically by the
system.
