Dictionary: GNU CIDE v0.52
Language: English
Release Date: 2018.01.28
Word Count: 176995

Generated from GCIDE v0.52 database files -> dictd format -> Stardict -> Kobo.

Stardict and xdxf versions attached in case anyone wants to merge this with other dictionaries or play with the formatting and make it look nicer.

Kobo: dicthtml-en-gcide-0.52.zip
Stardict: stardict-en-gcide-0.52.zip
dictd: dictd-en-gcide-0.52.zip
xdxf: xdxf-en-gcide-0.52.zip

Update (2019-10-18): Used makedict utility rather than pyglossary to manage conversion from dictd to stardict format to workaround bugs in sdcv that make synonym look ups slow and where sdcv only returns one definition when there are multiple definitions for a word (useful for koreader). Attached xdxf version used to add <pre> tags to Kobo version to maintain original formatting. All files updated.
Update (2019-10-14): Fixed a UTF-8 error that was preventing all the words from being indexed correctly in the Stardict conversion; resulted in the headcount increasing. New versions uploaded (links are the same) and have also posted the dictd version, which is closer to the original source used in conversion.
