 <p>A better alternative is to download the <a href="https://gcide.gnu.org.ua/download">GNU Collaborative International Dictionary of English</a>.</p>
 <p>Once inside the unpacked directory, run the following to change the naming of the files from "CIDE.*" to single letters.</p>
 <pre>for f in CIDE*; do; mv $f "${f#*.}"; done</pre>
-<p>Now, the following shell script can be used:</p>
-<pre>#!/bin/sh
-
-letter="$(printf "%.1s" "$*" | tr '[:lower:]' '[:upper:]')"
-sed -n "/&lt;p&gt;&lt;ent&gt;$*&lt;\/ent&gt;&lt;br\//I,/^$/p" "/path/to/dictionary/$letter" | w3m -dump -T text/html</pre>
+<p>Now, <a href="/git/dotfiles/file/.local/bin/def">this shell script</a> can be used.</p>
 <p>The w3m command can be replaced by other command-line web browsers to view the HTML. It takes less than a tenth of a second to return a definition.</p>
