Dictd is the reference implementation of the DICT network protocol, which serves language dictionaries (AKA glossaries) over a network. It stores its database in a simple text-based file with extension .dict (or .dict.dz when using Dzip), alongside an index file with the extension .index.[2] There is an extension called "dictzip" that uses the Gzip format, with extra index data in its headers, to compress the dictionary.[3]
