NAME

       cifer-dict - turn files containing lists of words into a dictionary for cifer(1)

SYNOPSIS

       cifer-dict input1 [input2]... output

DESCRIPTION

       In  order  to  use  some functions of cifer(1), a specially formatted 'dictionary' must be
       supplied. cifer-dict takes files containing lists of words as arguments, and  outputs  the
       correctly formatted dictionary.

       This  dictionary will have unicode characters converted to their nearest ASCII equivalents
       and all characters converted to lower case. It will be sorted and duplicates removed.

EXAMPLES

       cifer-dict /usr/share/dict/words dict

       This uses /usr/share/dict/words as the input list and creates the formatted dictionary  as
       dict.

       cifer-dict /usr/share/dict/words /home/superman/mywords dictionary

       This  uses /usr/share/dict/words and /home/superman/mywords as input lists and creates the
       formatted dictionary as dictionary.
