sdcv ( StarDict under Console Version) is the command line version of StarDict developed by Evgeniy A. Dushistov and Hu Zheng. It employs all the dictionary files that belong to StarDict. It is licensed under the terms of the GNU General Public License.

Supported Platforms

sdcv runs under Linux, FreeBSD, and Solaris. As in StarDict, dictionaries of the user's choice have to be installed separately.

Main Usage

Synopsis

sdcv


Use "-h" option to view the message of whole options.

Description

sdcv is a simple, cross-platform text-base utility for work with dictionaries in StarDict's format. The word from "list of words" may be string with leading '/' for using Fuzzy search algorithm, string may contain '?' and '*' for using regexp search. It works in interactive and non-interactive mode. Press Ctrl+D to exit from interactive mode?

Environment

Default location for dictionaries:

$(XDG_DATA_HOME)/stardict/dic

usually

~/.local/share/stardict/dic

STARDICT_DATA_DIR
If set, sdcv uses this variable as data directory.

Dictionary charging controversy

At the end of 2006, software developer Hu Zheng cited personal financial problems as an excuse to charge users for downloading dictionary files from his website, which temporarily aroused strong doubts and dissatisfaction in the Linux community. In the end, under the pressure of public opinion, the charging plan was forced to be canceled and ended hastily.
