Local cache supported

All queried word default cached to ~/.bing_dictionary.db. So it's much faster when you query the word again.

Here have the most common English words. You can cache them all with following script:

curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/first20hours/google-10000-english/master/google-10000-english-no-swears.txt | while read line; do dict $line; done

More options

$ dict --help
Example: dict hello
    -p, --[no-]pronounce             Pronounce the word
    -c, --[no-]cache                 Use cache from ~/.bing_dictionary.db (Default on)
    -j, --jump                       Jump to web page
    -v, --version                    Show the version

Work with vim

You can make it work tegother with Vim with bing_dictionary.vim

Thanks

Heavily borrowed from Command-Line-Youdao-Dictionary
