Tying things back to the original message in
this thread, I've merged Caerwyn Jones's pgw
changes into the distribution dict and put the
result on sources.

If you update you'll get the new dict,
and a /lib/dict/README.pgw that says:

	To get the Project Gutenberg dictionary use

		9fs sources
		cp /n/sources/extra/pgw.tar.bz2 /tmp
		cd /lib/dict
		bunzip2 < /tmp/pgw.tar.bz2 | tar x

Dict now uses the first dictionary on the system
as the default, so even though oed is listed first,
if all you have is the pgw that's what it will use.

I like this one:

	dict computer

Thanks, Caerwyn.  This is great.  It's really
nice to be able to use adict on my local machine.

Russ
