It's a client for the DICT protocol, similar to KDict for KDE, but not 
quite that sophisticated -- and memory hungry. If you setup a dict 
server on your home network and your Milan can access that machine, it 
should be fine. On a Linux box with any decent distro it's a simple 
matter of installing the dictd server software and a couple of 
databases to query.

I did compile dictd to set up the server on my Falcon (as you know the 
client and server can be on the same machine) but I couldn't get it to 
run. May have been a simple problem but since I prefered testing with 
online servers I didn't push the matter.
