SDCV(1) General Commands Manual SDCV(1) NAME sdcv - console version of StarDict program SYNOPSIS sdcv [ options ] [list of words] DESCRIPTION sdcv is a simple, cross-platform text-based utility for working with dictionaries in StarDict format. Each word from "list of words" may be a string with a leading '/' for using a Fuzzy search algorithm, with a leading '|' for using full-text search, and the string may contain '?' and '*' for regexp search. It works in interactive and non-interactive mode. To exit from interactive mode press Ctrl+D. In interactive mode, if sdcv was compiled with readline library support, you can use the UP and DOWN keys to cycle through history. OPTIONS -h --help Display help message and exit -v --version Display version and exit -l --list-dicts Display list of available dictionaries and exit -u --use-dict filename For search use only dictionary with this bookname -n --non-interactive For use in scripts -x --only-data-dir For use in scripts: only use the dictionaries in data-dir, do not search in user and system directories -e --exact-search Do not fuzzy-search for similar words, only return exact matches -j --json Print the results of list-dicts and searches as json, not as plain text. For use in automatically processing the results of a dictionary lookup. --utf8-output Force sdcv to not convert to locale charset, output in utf8 --utf8-input Force sdcv to not convert from locale charset, assume that in- put is in utf8 --data-dir path/to/directory Use this directory as the path to the stardict data directory. This means that sdcv searches for dictionaries in data-dir/dic directory. --color Use ANSI escape codes for colorizing sdcv output (does not work with json output). FILES /usr/local/share/stardict/dic $(XDG_DATA_HOME)/stardict/dic Place where sdcv expects to find dictionaries. Instead of /usr/local/share/stardict/dic you can use any directory you want, just set the STARDICT_DATA_DIR environment variable. For example, if you have dictionaries in /mnt/data/stardict- dicts/dic, set STARDICT_DATA_DIR to /mnt/data/stardict-dicts. $(XDG_DATA_HOME)/sdcv_history This file includes the last $(SDCV_HISTSIZE) words, which you sought with sdcv. SDCV uses this file only if it was compiled with readline library support. $(XDG_CONFIG_HOME)/sdcv_ordering This is a text file containing one dictionary bookname per line. It specifies in which order the results of a search should be shown. ENVIRONMENT Environment Variables Used By sdcv: STARDICT_DATA_DIR If set, sdcv uses this variable as the data direc- tory, this means that sdcv searches dictionaries in $STARDICT_DATA_DIR/dic SDCV_HISTSIZE If set, sdcv writes in $(XDG_DATA_HOME)/sdcv_his- tory (or $(SDCV_HISTFILE)) the last $(SDCV_HIST- SIZE) words, which you look up using sdcv. If it is not set, then the last 2000 words are saved in $(XDG_DATA_HOME)/sdcv_history. SDCV_HISTFILE If set, sdcv writes it's history to $(SDCV_HIST- FILE). If it is not set, then the default $(XDG_DATA_HOME)/sdcv_history path will be used. SDCV_PAGER If SDCV_PAGER is set, its value is used as the name of the program to use to display the dictionary ar- ticle. BUGS Email bug reports to dushistov at mail dot ru. Be sure to include the word "sdcv" somewhere in the "Subject:" field. AUTHORS Evgeniy A.
