Webster Dictionary \/ Thesaurus Search

Webster Dictionary \/ Thesaurus Search is a super handy widget made for the Yahoo! Widget Engine. It lets you quickly access the dictionary and thesaurus from Merriam Webster's website. The best part? It's super easy to install and set up—no confusing settings or options!

Simple Interface for Easy Use

The interface is just a small, rectangular window that you can move around your screen. You can even keep it on top of other windows while you work! Whether you're typing in Notepad, Microsoft Word, or using OpenOffice Writer, this widget makes looking up words so much easier.

How It Works

You just type your search terms into two boxes. Then, hit the Go button, and it opens a webpage with all the definitions right from Merriam Webster in your default web browser. It's quick and straightforward!

Customization Options Available

While the widget doesn't have many built-in features, you can still tweak some settings thanks to Yahoo! Widget Engine preferences. You can decide whether to keep it below other windows, ignore mouse clicks, or even set how transparent it is—ranging from 20% to 100% opacity.

Performance You Can Count On

This little tool won’t slow down your computer at all! It uses very low CPU and RAM resources. Plus, it searches for text really quickly without making the Yahoo!-based platform freeze or crash.

No More Updates Coming

Just a heads up: since the Yahoo! Widget Engine project has been discontinued, Webster Dictionary \/ Thesaurus Search won't be getting any new updates in the future. But for now, it's still a great tool to have!
