[comp.sys.cbm] Pocket Writer 2: Dictionary file format?

dar@cblpf.ATT.COM (David A. Roth) (08/16/87)

I just got the Pocket Writer 2 for my C128. It has a spell checker but
it does not include a dictionary. You are expected to create your own.
I have no problem with that but there method of creating your own is
answering A to add EVERY WORD you come across not in the dictionary. A
nice feature but insane if you are starting out with a null dictionary.
I could of course buy their Pocket Dictionay 128/64 which comes with
32k words on disk. Besides feeling a little ripped off I would prefer
to know the file format of their dictionary to write a small program
to merge my own word lists.

Anyone have experience with this?

Thanks in advance.
