Admittedly, this isn't the proper place for this, but given that the introduction & dispersal of webster.el caused at least one Webster server to shut their their lexiographic doors, perhaps it's of interest. The problem with the webster servers is that the data base is copyrighted; ergo, creating new webster servers is problematic at best. However, a recent computer (NeXT) comes packaged with the Webster database. Does anyone know of a webster server package for the NeXT? We have several of them on campus here, and I'd certainly like to use that database without having to switch machines. -- Dirk Grunwald -- Univ. of Illinois (grunwald@flute.cs.uiuc.edu)
