Description R. Sato 2017-11-13 08:42:54 UTC
I want to add the "wadoku" edict file into Kiten, but there are no results after them.

edict source:
https://www.wadoku.de/wiki/display/WAD/Downloads+und+Links

I converted the file into other character format, but it looks like this is not the issue. I also tried the edict and edict2 format.

At least the edict download on that page is encoded in UTF-8, but kiten only supports EUC-JP encoding.

You could try to convert it with something like this e.g.:
iconv -f utf-8 -t euc-jp -o newfilename filename
Comment 2 R. Sato 2020-02-04 23:10:20 UTC
This works, thank you! But in this time UTF-8 support will be better, therefore I will stay open as "Bug".
(Change version to 19.12)

Sure, I'll reword the summary accordingly though.
