Data::Kanji::Kanjidic is a "module" for the Perl computer programming language, a library of computer code to install on a computer. This document contains four sections: 1. About - what the module does 2. Documentation - how to learn more about the module 3. Installation - how to install this module on a computer 4. Help - what to do if you get stuck ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. ABOUT Data::Kanji::Kanjidic - parse the "kanjidic" kanji data file This extracts the data from the old-format "kanjidic" kanji dictionary file. See "About Kanjidic" if you are not familiar with this data file. This module's basic function is to read the "kanjidic" file into memory and create a data structure from it. Parsing Kanjidic takes a second or two. Here the Kanjidic file is the as-downloaded text file in the old format, rather than the new-format XML file. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2.
