Re: Oxford English and Spanish Dictionary

My experience with the justp lain Oxford English dictionary was that you 
could work with it if you really tried.  The whole thing was in a font JFW 
couldn't see.  I deleted the font from windows\fonts, which made the 
display revert to Aerial, which JFW could read.  I used the virtual window 
a lot, and of course could not read with the PC cursor at all.  The 
function keys controlled such processes as 'find' and 'save'.  I wrote some 
scripts to help it behave itself.

If the Spanish-English dictionary is similar, it will take some doing but 
would be manageable for an expert.  Although if another dictionary is 
accessible, I would vote for that.
