_______________________

We recommend this to all users of dictionary applications running on UniDict® Engine.

Won't replace a brand-name thesaurus like "Roget's II", but good enough.

This application links to applications running on UniDict® Engine -tap on a headword to invoke a search.
Link out to "Companion Thesaurus" just by tapping on any headword.
(Cross-application links support 'round-trip' via the "Back" button.)
