Hello. Does anyone around there know about German Word Processor and Thesaurus, Spellcheker? Friends of mine want to use it. Any information will be appreciated. Thanks in advance. HOSHINO Takashi, University of Tokyo

Microsoft sells a package with several language dictionaries that can be used with Microsoft Word to spellcheck documents written in those languages. The only disadvantage is that once in Word you can spellcheck only in the language chosen when you launched Word. Bob Fowles, Penn State

The dictionaries are common for Mac Write II, MacDraw II (maybe even FileMaker but I am not sure). I do not have German thesaurus and I've never seen one. -------------------------- Roman Kanala, CUEPE, University of Geneva, Switzerland, kanala@sc2a.unige.ch -------------------------- I will never buy a Ford because of Pinto.
