INTRODUCTION + +If you have dictionary look-up command (like 'webster'), you can +look a word in a document using w3m. This dictionary-lookup code +was contributed by `Rubikitch' (rubikitch@ruby-lang.org), and +further modifed by Tushar Samant (scribble at pobox.com). + +2. INSTALLATION + +To make use of dictionary look-up, you currently must change a +compile option by hand. After running configure, edit config.h +and change + +#undef USE_DICT + +to + +#define USE_DICT + +and recompile w3me (i.e. type "make install"). +Note that w3m/0.3+cvs-1.373 or later, USE_DICT is defined by default. + +Then find or install a CGI program which takes a word as a query +string and prints a response. + +Some ways to do this would be: + + * If you have the 'webster' command, put something like this + in a script called 'w3mdict': + + #!/bin/sh + + echo Content-type: text/plain + echo + webster $QUERY_STRING + + Then install w3mdict as a local CGI (see the local CGI section + of the w3m manual), and set your dictionary options from the + options page of w3m (usually invoked with "o"). + + * If you want this function to look a word up on Google instead, + write a local CGI script like this: + + #!/bin/sh + + google_q='http://google.com/search?btnG=Google&q' + + cat <<_END_ + Content-type: text/plain + W3m-control: GOTO $google_q=$QUERY_STRING + W3m-control: DELETE_PREVBUF + + _END_ + + and set its path as your dictionary-lookup URL option. + +3. USAGE + +You can use the following two commands: + +ESC w Input a word and look it up using w3mdict command. + +ESC W look up the current word in the buffer. + +To change these keys, edit ~/.w3m/keymap and edit lines for the +functions DICT_WORD and DICT_WORD_AT respectively. |
