Hia all,

I use "translate" a lot (Debian Sarge).  Is there a way to use emacs as
a frontend for translate?

>From my ~/.emacs:

;;;; ding
(defvar dh-ding-file-name "/usr/share/trans/de-en"
  "File name of the ding dictionary.")

(when (file-exists-p dh-ding-file-name)
  (defun dh-ding (&optional query)
    (interactive (list (read-string "Query: " (current-word))))
    (let ((coding-system-for-read 'latin-1)
          (coding-system-for-write 'latin-1))
      (grep (concat "egrep -nHih " query " " dh-ding-file-name))))

  (global-set-key "\C-cw" 'dh-ding))

AFAIK ding and translate are using the same dictionary.
