Subject: Re: dictionary database available for download?
"So I could make these database files available for download, but since it is a purely mechanical task to convert the raw text files into tables one and two, I hadn't considered it to be worthwhile to post this trivially derived form. I could be convinced to change my mind if there's real interest, but this would be one more thing for me to document and maintain.
In general, I haven't provided multiple formats of the same data because of the extra effort. I'd rather put my energies into getting the data itself online. Then, others can use the data to create whatever they want. But, I'll make exceptions if there is an obvious demand."
Ok, good argument. :-)
"I'm not quite sure what you're asking here. Which program do you mean?"
Sorry,many times I'm loose with technical terminology, but I was just refering to the searching software.
Well, thank you for your time responding to me. I really do appreciate it very much.
