User reviews

No display options on Tahoe 26.5

The search results are displayed in 8-pt font, and the Settings control merely changes the spacing of the display. I would like to see the results 12-pt font for easier reading, or maybe even bigger. But you’ve got no options with this.

Dab

A radioactive Demon core.

Roget’s Thesaurus

This is a writer’s thesaurus, sort of a reversed dictionary, and is most definitely different from your typical thesaurus.
It’s supposed to inspire ideas, and it gives you conceptually related words to the one being searched.
That being said, this is my 3rd(?) copy of the book; the bad reviews are those who don’t understand the purpose of the thesaurus.
If you’re looking for a basic thesaurus, this is not it! However, I will say that this is 100% my most used tool and provides exactly what it is intended to do.
