Re: [tlug] Import export for IME user dictionaries (was: ATOK for Linux)

["Evan Monroig" <evan.monroig@example.com>]

On my linux (Ubuntu), anthy has a tool called anthy-dic-tool that can
dump and load your kanji lists.

you can try the command

/usr/bin/anthy-dic-tool --dump >> /tmp/test.txt

which dumps the current user dictionnary and has some instructions on
the format of the file.
