作为一个作家,我经常需要确定单词的正确拼写或定义。我还需要使用词库来寻找替代词,这些词的内涵可能与我可能使用的词有些不同。因为我经常使用 Linux 命令行和文本模式工具来完成我的大部分工作,所以使用命令行词典是有意义的。
我非常喜欢使用命令行,原因有很多,其中最主要的原因是它对我来说更有效率。它也比任何一本或多本实体纸质字典,都要全面得多。我使用 Linux 的 dict 命令已经很多年了,我已经开始依赖它了。
在 Linux 上安装 dict
dict 程序在 Fedora 上没有默认安装,但它很容易安装。以下是如何在 Fedora 或类似发行版上安装:
$ sudo dnf install dictd
在 Debian 和类似发行版上,你还必须安装字典定义:
$ sudo apt install dictd dict-gcide
不需要额外的配置。这个非常简单的 /usr/share/doc/dictd/dict1.conf 文件指定了字典数据库的远程服务器。这个工具使用字典服务器协议(DICT),端口为 2628。
在 Linux 上使用 dict
在终端会话中,以非 root 用户的身份,输入 dict 来获取一个或多个字典和词库的定义列表。例如,以这种方式查找 memory 这个词。

字典
dict 命令使用一些在线字典,包括法律和技术字典。许多语言的字典也是可用的。你可以“列出”可用的字典数据库,如下面所示:

你可以用 -d 选项指定单个字典:
$ dict -d gcide
总结
有时使用词库中的词汇并不是最好的写作方法,因为它可能会混淆你的意思。但我确实发现 dict 命令在为特定的意思选择最好的词方面有极大的帮助。它还能确保我使用的单词拼写正确。
关于 dict 的信息很匮乏。 这个 URL http://www.dict.org/ 只提供了一个基于网络的字典界面。手册页涵盖了语法。但是这个命令是一个有用的、有趣的命令,可以随身携带。我承认在发现 dict 命令后,我花了很多时间尝试不同的东西,看看结果会是什么。我就是那个通读百科全书和字典的孩子。是的,我是_那个_孩子。除了在写作或阅读时是一个有用的工具外,dict 也可以是一个有趣的工具来满足一下好奇心。
