This file describes how to build dictionaries for the various versions
|
|
of Crosswords.
|
|
|
|
Short version:
|
|
|
|
For a Palm dictionary, type:
|
|
|
|
# make -f Makefile.BasEnglish TARGET_TYPE=PALM
|
|
|
|
which will create BasEnglish2to8.pdb.
|
|
|
|
For a Franklin or Wince or Linux dictionary, type
|
|
|
|
# make -f Makefile.BasEnglish TARGET_TYPE=FRANK
|
|
|
|
which will create BasEnglish2to8.seb and BasEnglish2to8.xwd.saved.
|
|
|
|
The .seb file is for the eBookman, and is just a wrapper around an
|
|
.xwd file. Unwrapped .xwd files are for Wince and Linux versions of
|
|
Crosswords. Remove the .saved from the end of the filename. It's
|
|
only there because I haven't figure out how to stop the build system
|
|
from deleting .xwd files after making .seb files out of them.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
English is unusual in having multiple dictionaries. In most language
|
|
directories there's only one, and so only one Makefile. So you skip
|
|
the -f option to make.
|
|
|
|
The 2to8 part of the name is a convention meaning that only words from
|
|
2 to 8 letters long are included. 2to8 is the default, but you can
|
|
explicitly use a different target and the build system will adjust what
|
|
words are included. For example
|
|
|
|
# make -f Makefile.BasEnglish TARGET_TYPE=FRANK BasEnglish2to5.xwd
|
|
|
|
will produce an even smaller dictionary for Wince and Linux.
