Usage

Dependencies: ruby3, translate-shell, dict

You can install dict from most package managers, e.g. brew install dict. Both gtranslate and dict must be in your $PATH, otherwise set D_GTRANSLATE_BIN_PATH and D_DICT_BIN_PATH environment variables.

chmod +x ./d

d eng tur love
d thesaurus contextual

Basic english only usage:

d define glee club
d thesaurus medium

See the dictd_mode_command function below for the supported modes; it's easy to add any that dictd supports.

You can quickly translate arbitrary language to language pairs as well:

d eng hun to preen

Run dictd -D for a list of available language pairs.
