zdict
-----
zdict is a simple lookup tool for English speakers learning Japanese.
Unlike other Japanese dictionaries, zdict uses romanji to ease the
translation process.
zdict uses the GTK+ toolkit (version 3)
edict
-----
This program uses the GPL version (pre 2000-03-25) of Jim Breen's edict
japanese-english dictionary.
You may not link a non-GPL version of edict into zdict.
More information about edict can be found in:
edict.txt
edict_r.txt
edict_license.txt
and the edict homepage at http://www.csse.monash.edu.au/~jwb/j_edict.html
Note: the EDICT.DOC file (refered to in the edict license) was renamed
to edict.txt to prevent confusion with Word documents.

To compile, you need the GTK+ 3 development libs and a C compiler.
For debian based distributions:
apt-get install build-essential libgtk-3-dev libgdk-pixbuf2.0-dev pkg-config
Then:
1) make
2) make install
By default, the files will install into /usr. To change the destination,
pass PREFIX to make:
