The script generates pocketbook dic- and xdxf-files for all input and Stardict xml-files as intermediary when converting any Stardict triplet of files. Since Penelope can handle both Stardict- and xdxf-files, you’re ready to go.

Ezdiy already patched the most horrible aspects of [i]convert.exe[\i] and the script basically smooths all wrinkles left. So there is no buggy binary involved anymore. Just buggy windows users.

As a solution to too large articles, I split them in multiple articles with the same heading + a symbol. Currently the script uses only the symbol nothing (“”). Ideally, we should figure out how to use morphems.txt to make the app judge them as identical. Anyway, I don’t know whether this works or needs tweaking.

Could you elaborate on how you analyzed the dic-files? I would really like to generate them directly from Perl.
