I don't know enough to answer this question. Others will, but many people
are at the perl conference at the moment so they may not be in a position
to read e-mail or reply this week.
I don't *think* it's necessary, given that we're going to be putting it
all in a hash anyway.
No, we are not putting it all in a hash, not in the sense of
cacheing/accumulating the charinfo() results.
I now extended Search::Dict so that it can do a little bit more with
its input stream, and that made having a sorted file unnecessary.
