Examples
Searching a Dictionary
You can search a stardict dictionary directly and list the entries.
// Open dictonaries in a directory
dictionaries, _ := stardict.OpenAll(".")
// Search the dictionaries.
for _, d := range dictionaries {
entries, _ := d.Search("banana")
for _, e := range entries {
// Print out matching index entries.
fmt.Println(e)
}
}
