I was trying to search across two dictionaries MW and AP90 via the commandline tool cdsl.
I could search in MW and AP90 individually, but could not search in both simultaneously.
Maybe I could not understand the usage instruction properly.
I tried to pass both MW and AP90 as space separated.
If there is a problem, kindly fix it.
If I misunderstood the syntax, kindly post an example of multi-dictionary search in the documentation and change the title of this report from bug to documentation.
