converted file. For instance, you are likely to modify TITLE,
DOCSTRING, and KEY-BINDINGS.
Cxterm dictionary file (*.tit) is a line-oriented text (English,
Chinese, Japanese, and Korean) file. The whole file contains of
two parts, the definition part (header here after) followed by
the dictionary part (body here after). All lines begin with
leading '#' are ignored.
Each line in the header part has two fields, KEY and VALUE. These fields are separated by one or more white characters.
Each line in the body part has two fields, KEYSEQ and TRANSLATIONS. These fields are separated by one or more white characters.
See the manual page of tit2cit of cxterm distribution for more
detail.
Near the end of this file, we also have a few other tools to convert miscellaneous dictionaries.
Note: This file includes several codepoints outside of the Unicode
0..#x10FFFF range, which are characters that were not unified into
Unicode. Therefore, this file is encoded in utf-8-emacs, because
UTF-8 cannot encode such codepoints. We include these codepoints
literally in the file to have them displayed by suitable fonts,
which makes maintenance easier.
