dictd server

hello, i was, wondering is the dictd server available so that i may use dictionary databases locally, do i need the server or is the client and databases sufficient. if i need to install the server, which doesnt seem to be available in the ports, can i just compile it. how would i edit the files to make it part of my ports collection, as i want to keep track of my source installs using ports. feel free to edit the grammar if you need to make this post more readable. thanks, simon
