+XJDIC V2.2, XJDSERVER V2.2 -- (Copyright: J.W. Breen - 1996)
+
+XJDIC is an electronic Japanese-English dictionary program designed to
+operate in the X11 window environment. In particular, it must run in an
+"xterm" environment which has Japanese language support such as provided by
+"kterm" or internationalized xterm, aixterm, etc.
+
+It is based on JDIC and JREADER which were developed to run under MS-DOS on
+IBM PCs or clones.
+
+XJDIC functions as:
+
+(a) an English to Japanese dictionary (eiwa jiten), searching for and
+displaying entries for key-words entered in English;
+
+(b) a Japanese to English dictionary (waei jiten), searching for and
+displaying entries for keywords or phrases entered in Japanese (kanji,
+hiragana or katakana);
+
+(c) a Japanese-English Character dictionary (kanei jiten), capable of
+selecting kanji characters by JIS code, radical, stroke count, Nelson Index
+number or reading, and displaying compounds containing that kanji.
