漢英佛學辭典

漢英佛學辭典 is open-source educational software for Linux. It provides a computer-based way to consult a digitized reference on Buddhist terminology. The program is intended for Linux users who need subject-specific reference material rather than a general-purpose language study tool.

The underlying dictionary was first published in 1937 and was reprinted many times. Its contents were digitized during 2002 and 2003 under the guidance of Charles Muller. Muller also corrected many entries for inclusion in his Digital Dictionary of Buddhism, adding important context to the digital material used by the application.

The software’s main function is access to this digitized dictionary content. Its open-source license identifies it as software whose source is available under an open-source license. This makes it part of the Education category because its purpose is centered on consulting and studying Buddhist terminology.

MirrorNest mirrors the official build directly on its own storage. Before publishing the mirrored copy, MirrorNest scans it for malware. Linux users can therefore obtain a copy sourced from the official build through the catalog, with malware screening performed as part of MirrorNest’s distribution process.
