perl. Maybe you can use the module Lingua::JP::Kanjidic by Simon
Cozens?


Thanks for the tip. I had a look at it, and it seems to need some work. Doesn't parse all the fields in the dictionary yet, unfortunately. I'll try editing it up a bit. 


sorry, but what are you trying to achieve?
i mean, what advanced features you need from a kanjidic parser?

for me it seems that 2-3 lines of perl (mostly splits) would completely parse the kanjidic database for you... 

Thanks for your input.
