Scientific words are specialist words. I work in the Web. Would you like your dictionary to contain all the specialist words of the computer industry (words like foo, bar, foobar, Perl, ALGOL and Borroughs). I used to work as an electrician, there was a specialist list of words for that too. I also worked at a Hydro Electrical Generating station and the list of words for that was different for that to the normal house wiring industry. By the way not all names are in the dictionary, but some are. I find Biblical and Royal names come up a lot, but if you are in the baby naming businness you probably want the lot in there. By the way what science are you in? I beleive the list of specialist technical word will vary depending if it is brain surgery, rocket science, or nuclear physics. I think if all aspects of science and every other specialty covered by the dewey decimal system was taken into account the dictionary would be larger than the OO.o program and doing a spellcheck would be a prohibitive excercise. I also believe that specialist dictionaries of words for specialist purposes do exist. You may find that someone has added the one you want as a dictionary already, if you are prepared to narrow down your request to specifics. -- Michael All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well - Julian of Norwich 1342 - 1416 --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
