Generating dictionary from dicts.info

The http://dicts.info/ server provides downloadable dictionaries for many languages. Unfortunately the license does not allow redistribution, so you need to generate them yourself. With stardicter it is easy:

./dicts_info_tarball.sh italian czech

This generates tarball with italian-czech dictionary. You can choose any language provided by the service.
