You should then find the dictionary widget
well if it makes you feel better. It took me a while to find that way of
navigation as well.

Hi,
I followed these steps but once I get into the widget place, I am stuck in
calculator and I can't figure out how to get out of it and get to the
dictionary/thesaurus. I'd really love access to a thesaurus.
Thanks so much.

On the Mac, if the app uses the standard text edit widget you can select
a word using option-shift-left or right to select the word to the left
or right of where you are. Then you can pull up the contextual menu with
control+option+shift+M an the first item will be Look Up
word_you_selected.
Can we use this app offline? Obviously we can't use Apple or Wikipedia but can
we use the integrated dictionary or thesaurus without an internet connection?
If so this could be used as an offline reference tool should you not require
such a connection.

You should then find the dictionary widget if it is installed.

Doesn't the mac have one built in? Matter of fact doesn't the iPhone do
as well? They're sure buried from within their respective operating
systems but they are there.

Why yes, in fact, it does. But, it's been so long since I've fooled with it, I
forgot how to get access to it.

I think there is even a dashboard widget to get there. I love the fact that
the dictionary is available all over the mac and with just a few keystrokes.

Quite right Jim. Here's how I did it.
1. Open the widgit bar menu from F12.
2. Select dictionary from this drop down.
3. Type in or paste in the word you wish.
4. Now, from the pop up menu just to the left of the text box, select either
dictionary or Thesaurus.
5. Now, press return.
Ray I thought there used to be a keystroke defined to open dictionary but I
don't see one. I guess you could certainly define one in keyboard under system
preferences, and a lot of programs will let you right-click and get access that
way also.
I just used spotlight and typed in dictionary and
