DAWGDIC-BUILD(1)

✨ DAWGDIC-BUILD ✨

okay bestie, welcome to dawgdic-build(1) 💅 this is the little guy that builds a DAWG-based dictionary for you, and honestly? it ate.

---

🌸 USAGE 🌸

dawgdic-build [options] [lexicon-file [dictionary-file]]

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so here's the vibe: dawgdic-build reads a sorted list of words from lexicon-file — or from standard input if you don't hand it a file, no pressure 🫶 — then it builds a DAWG dictionary and saves it to dictionary-file, or to standard output if you didn't give it one.

that's it. that's the whole main character arc. ✨

lowkey important: the list of words has to be sorted. the manpage said sorted, so it's sorted, periodt. 🙈

---

💖 OPTIONS 💖

• -h — display help and exit. it's giving "i just need answers real quick" 😌
• -t — handle tab as separator. tabs are separators now, slay. ✨
• -g — build dictionary with guide. 👑
• -r — build dictionary with ranked guide. 🔥
