+Extensions
+----------
+As the original StarDict is a bit of a clusterfuck with regard to collation of
+dictionary entries, I had to introduce an additional "collation" field into the
+.ifo file. When sdtui discovers this field while reading the dictionary, it
+automatically reorders the index according to that locale (e.g. "cs_CZ").
+This operation may take a little while.

Unfortunately this application only really works with specific dictionaries.
