Searching for kanji by radicals is also available.

# Installation
|
||
Binaries are directly available from the release tab.
|
||
|
||
# Compilation
|
||
|
||
Download source and run
|
||
```
|
||
cargo build --release
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
# Usage
|
||
A readline wrapper like `rlwrap` is strongly recommended if using `jisho-cli` interactively (-i).
|
||
```
|
||
jisho [<words to look up>]
|
||
jisho :[<radicals in kanji>]
|
||
```
|
||
When looking up radicals, * (or ＊) can be used to add a radical that can't be easily typed, e.g. 气.
|
||
|
||
# Note
|
||
To search kanji by radicals, the [radkfile](https://www.edrdg.org/krad/kradinf.html) needs to be installed in either `~/.local/share/` on Linux or `~\AppData\Local\` on Windows.
