Not knowing an ounce of the dictionary code, I still wonder if modifying
Plucker ( http://www.plkr.org/ ) wouldn't save some hassle. Specifically
the Plucker Distiller, the desktop-side parsing and converting app. (Python,

There is also the Sunrise project (formerly JPluck) for doing the same
thing. (Java, BSD)
