an old theme "I want a printed dictionary…"

As I peruse the dictionary TSNet is *huge* and complex…. Hunt and peck for what 
you have no clue will serve your needs gets tiring. Sometimes good 
old-fashioned "study for your exams" approach is a better way to go.

And no, I don't want anything electronic. see the long discussion thread last 
year in October/November on this…

But -- the PDF User Guide does not have a TS Net section

I found this

/Applications/LiveCode Business 8.1.9 (rc 
1).app/Contents/Tools/Documentation/html_viewer/resources/data/api/api.sqlite

and if I open the api.sqlite  file in a DB browser… the entry data are binary 
blobs (What are those? LC array stores)

And this:

/Applications/LiveCode Business 8.1.9 (rc 
1).app/Contents/Tools/Documentation/html_viewer/resources/data/api/distributed_api.js

Not particularly user friendly for converting to a printed document: 112,014 
lines of JSON data…but still hackable.

but, before I write some jsonToArray + TSNet filter -> to text…  to extract 
TSNet commands from the distributed_api.js

@Charles do you have a PDF with all the TSNet commands and functions like we 
see in the dictionary?
Or has anyone written widget to dump text form the dictionary? I'm not looking 
for anything fancy…
