What's file format of dictionary
I am looking into the dictionary of kobo and thinking of ways to build a dictionary.
It seems that each dictionary takes a folder. Under each folder, there is a file 'words' and some '.html' files. '.html' is a compressed gzip file. File 'words' should be a word list, but I don't know how it is compressed. Can anyone give some information? |

Just a message to let you know I had the same conclusions ... and questions about the word file.
Hope someone will find some meaning. |

I found something from http://code.google.com/p/marisa-trie/
Matching Algorithm with Recursively Implemented StorAge (MARISA) is a static and space-efficient trie data structure. And libmarisa is a C++ library to provide an implementation of MARISA. Also, the package of libmarisa contains a set of command line tools for building and operating a MARISA-based dictionary. A MARISA-based dictionary supports not only lookup but also reverse lookup, common prefix search and predictive search. •Lookup is to check whether or not a given string exists in a dictionary. •Reverse lookup is to restore a key from its ID. •Common prefix search is to find keys from prefixes of a given string. •Predictive search is to find keys starting with a given string. |
