TheSage English Dictionary and Thesaurus is a complete dictionary and a multifaceted thesaurus of the English language. It runs locally, and does not use your Internet connection. The essential functionality includes the following: tabbed interface allowing multiple definitions and searches to be readily available, quick cross-referencing; standard and advanced wildcard search functionality; anagram search; history and session record keeping; options that allow customization of the appearance of TheSage; copy to clipboard of all or part of the information displayed.

I have not been able to do this as this program states:
"TheSage can look up words directly from almost any program (IE, Word, Firefox, Outlook, Thunderbird,... "
Can you please tell me how?
Thanks

Very good. Have been using Wordweb, but am now giving this a try.

Really excellent software. Fast and easy-to-use.
As fast and as stable as ever. Well worthwhile, even if only used occasionally.
