Editing dictionaries

The data file and the index file used by the server are generated from base data in plain text or HTML format. These base data can be edited with a UTF-8 capable editor. After editing you need to generate the data and index file again. The following example explains how it can be done for Tu Dien Su Dia. The data for TD Su Dia are contained in several text files: utf8_a.txt, utf8_b1.txt, utf8_b2.txt ... Note: if you replace vietdict23.jar with vietdict24.jar in vietdict.bat, the file form.html will be recreated for you every time the server is started.
