I don't see why it's important. Yes, dict (the program) and dictd are broken. Yes, the authors of dict and dictd don't understand i18n. But the standard is very clear on what you need to handle how. Make sure that wordinspect handles the standard right, and let dict and dictd deal with thier own problems. -- David Starner - [EMAIL PROTECTED] What we've got is a blue-light special on truth.
