DESCRIPTION

Pycabulary is a parser for dicius implemented in Python.

dicius is a free online language dicionaries and Pycabulary offer a confortable interface to it. Actually Pycabulary is, at the moment, three different interfaces for the same service, a command line interface, GTK one and a Tkinter one, chooce what the best is for you. Notice that Tkinter is part of the standard Python library and is fully portable to every platform where Python is supported (MacOs, Windows and Unix).

At the moment only english/italian and italian/english vocabularies are implemented.
