Changing dictionaries

« on: January 11, 2009, 10:15:12 AM »

Has anyone successfully changed the default dictionary to a different one? I'm finding a lot of the books I read do not have words that can be defined, at times, by the default one and was going to look into getting a different one. Anyone tried that?

I'd be interested in finding out if that can be done.

There are instructions for changing dictionaries in the User's Guide. Chapter 7 I think.

I haven't heard of any dictionaries that are available. It seems that they have to be in a special format to be the lookup dictionary. There were some foreign language dictionaries available that people were talking about for a while that worked, so it can be done, but I don't know of a larger English dictionary that is available.
