DESCRIPTION
-----------
CPT Dictionary is a browser for dictionary files (CTrees),
created by the program CPT Word Lists 1.x.

Features:
- browsing/searching in any standard encoding including
  Unicode decomposition and bidi support;
- creates display list of all words or clues (definitions);
- supports inverted indexes;
- searching in several dictionaries;
- supports watch mode - via the clipboard
  the search pattern is taken from any application/window;
- filtering words and clues via all tags;
- options for the keyboard input, the searching,
  and the information to be shown;
- searching variants of words like anagrams
  and palindromes;
- can be localized by the user.

More details can be found in the HTML documentation.

The distribution contains two sample dictionaries,
just to test the installation:
- "The Unofficial Smiley Dictionary" is CTree with
clues (smile.dic).
- "2000K" is artificial word list of two millions words,
stored in 9KB file (2000K.wlz).

SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS
-------------------
- Supported OS: Windows 95/98/NT/2K
  (for Linux there is a separate distribution);

- Requires 600 KB of disk space and 32 MB RAM.

- This is Java program and Sun's JDK/JRE 1.1.3 or
  greater or compatible is needed. The Sun's Java
  Runtime Environment is available for download at: 
    http://java.sun.com/products/
  (version 1.1.8 is 5 MB, 1.3.1 is 7.8 MB, 1.4 is 12 MB)
  For Java 1.1, please, look at our JavaFonts.txt for tuning
  your JDK/JRE installation.

  If you prefer MS JVM (JView is included in any Windows
  before WXP), and if your version does not support JNI
  (it gives "...UnsatisfiedLinkError"), take new one from:
    http://www.microsoft.com/java/vm/
  (the recent versions are about 6 MB)
NOTE: MS JVM has faster GUI but supports limited number of
character encodings and you might get an error message by
the CPT programs like "...Converter not found!".

INSTALL
-------

1. Extract this zip file into temporary directory.

2. Edit "install.bat" to reflect your Java VM
   (there are guiding comments in the file).
   Run it from the temporary directory.
   This will start the wizard and according to your
   choices, the program CPT Dictionary will be installed.

3. The installation program (install.class) is a
   self-extracting class file whose contents get
   extracted during the installation and two
   directories will be created:
   - the target one chosen for the installation;
   - <user-home>\ITJ directory for the uninstall program
   (see UNINSTALL below).
   Note that CPT Dictionary is 'single user application'
   and the user running the program should have
   full access to the installation directory.

4. If the installation fails, you still can extract
   the program from 'data.zip' file left in the
   temporary directory.

5. If you have problem running CPT Dictionary,
   check/modify the generated cpt_dc12.bat file to
   reflect your JDK/JRE environment, especially
   if you install a new version of JRE after you
   install this program (e.g. for Java 1.3.1, 1.4 you
   shoud add -noverify flag).

UNINSTALL
---------
To uninstall, do one of the following:

1. Click on the uninstall icon added to the
   start menu or desktop folder.

2. Go to the Add/Remove Programs dialog in the
   Windows Control Panel and remove the program.

3. Run in command line
     <user-home>\ITJ\juninst <CPT-home>\UnInst
   where <CPT-home> is the installation directory,
   and <user-home> for Win 2K is:
     c:\Documents and Settings\<user-name>
   for NT it is:
     c:\winnt\Profiles\<user-name>
   and for ME or single user Win 95 it is:
     c:\windows

If you have installed a new version of JRE after
the installation of this program, check/modify
juninst.bat in your <user-home>\ITJ sub directory.
After the uninstallation, the ITJ directory
will not be removed because it serves all CPT
packages. If you don't have any other CPT
program, you can delete it.
