[comp.os.vms] DECwrite and "International Lexicons"

grr@cbmvax.commodore.com (George Robbins) (07/06/90)

Is there anyone out there that has played with DECwrite and/or the
"International Lexicons" that DEC sells to adapt it to various foreign
languages?

I don't have any great interest in DECwrite, but I'd like to have some foreign
language word lists (ideally dictionaries).  The SPD says that the lexicons
are "encoded" word lists.  If this is something like the encoding used for
ispell, it'd probably be worth shelling out for DECwrite even I it never gets
installed.  If they are impenetrably encrypted, it probably not...
