If it finds any whole-word matches then it outputs those; otherwise it outputs any matches at all. When invoked without arguments, it reads words from stdin and looks them up. In this mode, very practical for long translation tasks, just enter each word followed by . To quit, Ctrl-D When entering an Esperanto word, use the "x" or "^" notation for the accented letters e.g. cx, gx, hx, jx, sx and ux. This dictionary is the basis of the web-based dictionary www.pjb.com.au/esperanto/eo_en.html but it works at the command line. Therefore it also handles pasted query-texts, and query-texts either in x-notation or in UTF8-format. The program name B is the two-letter abreviation for the Esperanto language. =head1 OPTIONS =over 3 =item I<-a> Outputs all the dictionary, in text form =item I<-h> Converts the cx, gx, hx, jx, sx and ux transliterations into their HTML forms: ĉ ĝ ĥ ĵ ŝ and ŭ and their uppercase equivalents Cx, Gx, Jx, Sx and Ux into: Ĉ Ĝ Ĥ Ĵ Ŝ and Ŭ =item I<-j> Outputs a JavaScript function I which contains the text of the whole dictionary, and is the basis of the web-based version http://www.pjb.com.au/esperanto/eo_en.html =item I<-u> Converts the cx, gx, hx, jx, sx and ux transliterations into their Utf8 forms: \x{0109} \x{011D} \x{0125} \x{0137} \x{015D} and \x{016D} and their uppercase equivalents Cx, Gx, Jx, Sx and Ux into: \x{0108} \x{011C} \x{0124} \x{0136} \x{015C} and \x{016C} =item I<-v> Prints version number =item I<-x> Produces output in x-notation; this is the default =back =head1 AUTHOR Peter J Billam http://www.pjb.com.au/comp/contact.html =head1 CREDITS Based on I (David Jordan), I (Louis Bastien), I (George Cox), I (Gladstone Solomon), I I I and I =head1 SEE ALSO http://wwwtios.cs.utwente.nl/traduk/ http://en.lernu.net/helpo/vortaroj.php?utm_id=3 http://www.reta-vortaro.de/revo/ http://bertilow.com/div/komputada_leksikono/ http://freshmeat.net/projects/eoconv/ http://www.pjb.com.au/esperanto/ http://www.pjb.com.au/esperanto/grammar_eo.html http://www.pjb.com.au/esperanto/eo_en.html http://www.pjb.com.au/ and perl(1). =cut
