Net::Dict v1.04 This distribution contains the Net::Dict module for Perl. Net::Dict is a class implementing a simple client library for the Dict protocol defined in RFC2229. To install this module, you should just have to run the following: % perl Makefile.PL % make % make test (this can be omitted, as there are no tests currently) % make install The module is documented using pod. When you "make install", you will get a man-page Net::Dict. You can also generate HTML using pod2html: % pod2html lib/Net/Dict.pm In addition to the documentation, the examples directory contains simple.pl, which illustrates basic use of Net::Dict. This module was written by Dmitry Rubinstein, but is now maintained by me. Neil Bowers Canon Research Centre Europe http://www.cre.canon.co.uk/
