Implementation of a basic dictionary
Registered by
David Cournapeau
One of the stated goal of pykdic is to have a Japanese dictionary. The only dictionary I know of on Linux is gjiten, but I have some problems with it, and the code is really unreadable. The things I don't like with gjiten is the link between a kanji search and a word search. Also, the search by radical is not really efficient, noth from a UI point of view and from an implementation point of view (specially when looking for kanji with say between n and m strokes).

The kanji DB backend is mostly in place now, but I still don't know how to implement the UI. Should take a look at other dictionaries to see how they do.
