    (Reviewing v4.5.1784, on Win7 64bit)

    Beautiful!

    The perfect English dictionary for looking up words, meanings, spellings and alternative words. However, fileforum has dropped the ball on providing the most recent version. Get it from their home page.

    Reviewing 3.1.0.1740 (Jan 6, 2009)

    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

    As fast and as stable as ever. Well worthwhile, even if only used occasionally.
