Dictionary look-up hack for w3m
1. 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-1.358 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.
