Re: missing thesaurus

Hi Jelle,

VMware is beginning to look like a good option, but it's still just a
temporary one for those of us who want to be free of Windows.

Too bad about your situation in the Netherlands. Depending on your Linux
distribution, there are some good dictionary applications in the
repositories. Wordnet is an example. But sometimes these are products of
large institutions and function more as linguistic databases more than
good reference software. If we make enough noise, maybe what we want
will eventually become available (??).
