Summary: Big Thesaurus is Not for Kids
Comment: If you are a writer or ever just need to grasp a new or different word, Big Thes 2.1 is for you. It's an interactive thesaurus and a great writing tool. It is set up as a Mac 9.X system extension and is always available onscreen, via a small menu drop-down at the top of the screen.To use, you highlight a word in ANY program - Word, Office, Pagemaker, Quark - it doesn't matter. Then reach up and click on the Big Thes drop down menu, highlight "lookup selection" and bam -- you get nouns, verbs, adjectives and everything else.
It has 1.4 million combinations, organized by meanings, and up to 40 different definitions per word.
When you find the one you want, you hit "replace" and keep on writing.
It's nifty.
I gave it only 4 because they have not upgraded it to system 10 for the Mac.
