That's right. I also thought about that. I'm still unsure about how to
store the local dictionary. One obvious possibility would of course
be to define a system-wide and a user-local directory where the
dictionary entries can be found as files with the same name as the
article name. That would make both implementation and usage on
UNIX-like systems easy and also integrate nicely in Spotlight-like
desktop search tools, since articles are simple UTF8 ASCII files. :-)
