.SH NAME
marisa\-build \- A tool to build a dictionary from a set of key
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B marisa\-build
.RI [ options ]
.SH DESCRIPTION
\fBmarisa\-build\fP is a tool to build a dictionary from a set of keys. This
tool takes as input newline\-delimited keys and writes the dictionary to the
standard output.
.PP
Users can specify parameters through command line options. See
\fBmarisa\-build \-h\fP for the list of options.
.PP
If an input line contains horizontal tabs, the last one serves as the delimiter
between a key and its weight which is used to optimize the order of nodes.
Estimated frequency of each key, given as the weight, may improve the search
performance.
