It's a download. It isn't a great dictionary, but adequate for a fast reference or confirmation. Once installed, you just press a key combination to bring up the program, which responds right away. If you have focus on a word in many applications, Wordweb will have that word in the search field when the program loads. From there, you tab twice to the definition, and you can tab again for an abbreviated synonyms list.
Note that the default shortcut duplicated one I already had in my system, so I changed it to something else. I just googled Wordweb, and got this page with the first hit: http://wordweb.info/free/ -----Original Message----- From: Lisle, Ted (CHFS DMS) [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Friday, October 31, 2014 3:26 PM To: Adrian Spratt; The Jaws for Windows support list.

Free forever, but as Jean noted, only so long as you periodically answer yes to their question whether you fly, or don't fly roundtrip, or some such out-there requirement. The paid version spares users this indignity. -----Original Message----- From: Jfw [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Doris &Hubby Chris via Jfw Sent: Friday, October 31, 2014 1:08 PM To: j Bron; The Jaws for Windows support list.
