New at Jedmodes: dictmode and thesaurus

["G. Milde" <g.milde@xxxxxx>]

Dear Jed Users,

after some months of hidden and not so hidden development we proudly
announce the public release of new user interfaces to the dict protocoll
for jed at http://jedmodes.sf.net/

Actually, there is a choice:

  dict      is already here for a while. It works with the "socket" module.
  
  dictmode  is an advanced interface that makes use of lots of the *utils
            at jedmodes. Uses either the dict command line program or the
            curl module as backend (via one of the "dict-backends")
            
  moby-thesaurus  a smaller mode with less dependencies and especially
                  tailored towards lookups of synonyms in a thesaurus
  
  dict-backends   interfaces to either the command line program or the
                  curl module used by dictmode.
  
Try them, test them choose your favourite, report problems and
enhancement wishes.

If there is public request, an interface using the curl command line
program and a version of moby-thesaurus using dict-backends is feasible.

Thanks go to Paul Boekholt and Morten Bo Johansen for their work.

Guenter
