You can do the same thing in WordWeb Pro, the paid-for application of
WordWeb. You type in what you want to look up, as you would type any
term whose definition you wanted; then shift-tab to the Wikipedia tab;
and you're taken into wikipedia with your term highlighted. Kurzweil1000
also has a wikipedia lookup feature. So, Research It is one among
several apps that do this. Which lookup/browsing means is preferred -
manual or automated tool - is a matter of one's own liking and/or
convenience.

Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] researchit again
OK, I am going to be lazy here. I've never used Research It, does it
reformat the page from wikipedia or something? What is the advantage?
I just go to en.wikipedia.org and type in my search in the first edit
box and hit enter. Poof, all I need? How does Research It make that
any simpler?
