				Search in 2 dictionary in a same time
			 
			
			Hi, First, sorry for my bad english, I'm french. Is there a way to search a word in 2 (or more !) dictionaries in a same time? I explain : I've got a word like "cheese", I want to know what it is, and the search should be done in a "classic" dictionary because it's a usual word. Now I try to know who is "Kennedy", the search in the classic dictionary should return no result, because it's a "proper name" (I don't the good word in English for this kind of word like Dallas, Napoleon, steve Mcqueen or Alabama), so the search should continue in a second dictionary. Is there a way to this ? If I use 3 dictionaries and if a word is found in 2 dictionaries, what will happen? I will see the 2 responses? Last edited by akorx; 03-06-2020 at 06:10 AM. |

			If the dictionaries are in the dictfile format for dictutil the won't be right now, as I just released dictutil yesterday), you can pass all three to dictgen and you'll see results from all of them.
