Is there such a thing as a software dictionary available (not a spell
checker, a dictionary)?  PD, SW or otherwise will do.  Can someone
recommend one?  Thanks.

Depending on what one does with the dictionary, one could acquire
it off of a mini from one of the many spell checkers that typically 
reside in multiuser enviroments.  On the 2 different systems we have 
both dictionaries are simply text files.
