31 GNU Dico is a flexible modular implementation of DICT server
32 (RFC 2229). In contrast to another existing servers, it does
33 not depend on particular database format, instead it handles
34 database accesses using loadable modules.
35
36 The package includes several loadable modules for interfacing
37 with various database formats, among them a module for dict.org
38 databases and a module for transparently accessing Wikipedia or
39 Wiktionary sites as a dictionary database.
40
41 New modules can easily be written in C, Guile or Python. The
42 module API is mature and well documented.
43
44 A web interface serving several databases is available.
45
46 The package also includes a console client program for querying
47 remote dictionary servers.
