Files for Programmers in Spanish

Dictionary of nouns, adjectives, adverbs, etc.

The Java Programming Languages' "Serialized Objects" interfaces are how data-files are stored.
Files ending with "dat" are data-files created using the Object Serialization of Java Data-Set objects.
Each ".dat" (either tmdat or tsdat) contain 1 Java Serialized Object - either a TreeSet or TreeMap
They have been compressed using Java's ZIP/Compressed output stream class in java.io.Serializable & java.util.zip
".tmdat" is short for "TreeMap<String, String> data file"
".tsdat" is short for TreeSet<String> data file
They can be directly loaded from disk using simple java commands into memory.
Dictionaries are stored as TreeMaps, and to look up a word, just search for a vocabulary using the key!
Three Dicitonaries are provided here: Neo, Harrap, and Collins - they were scraped from SpanishDict.com

NOTE: The definitions provided here are suitable for "Pop-Up Windows".
Single Word Answers will possibly come later one.
