I needed a russian-english dictionary. Having found one at www.rambler.ru=
,
here's what I did to make using it bearable.

	A /bin/rudict script:
#!/bin/rc
query=3D`{ascii -8 `{echo $1 | tcs -t cp1251} | sed 's/^/%/g' | tr -d \x0=
a | sed 's/.$//'}
hget 'http://www.rambler.ru/dict/scripts/go.cgi?query=3D'   ^   $query   =
^   '&where=3Druen' \
| tcs -f cp1251  \
| htmlfmt -c utf8 \
| sed -n '/^1.*/,/=D0=9E =D1=81=D0=BB=D0=BE=D0=B2=D0=B0=D1=80=D0=B5/p' \
| sed '/=D0=9F=D0=BE=D0=BB=D0=BD=D0=BE=D1=81=D1=82=D1=8C=D1=8E...|=D0=9E =
=D1=81=D0=BB=D0=BE=D0=B2=D0=B0=D1=80=D0=B5/d'

	A plumbing rule:
# Russian text
type is text
data matches '[a-zA-Z=C2=A1-=EF=BF=BF]+'
data matches '[=D0=81-=D1=91]+'
plumb start show rudict $0

	Where /bin/show is:
#!/bin/rc
$1 $2 | plumb -i -d edit -a 'action=3Dshowdata filename=3D'/$1/$2
