Yes, I know about this but would bet quids it simply would not
work on a web page well. I think I tried it once?
Hey Leo, and Sally, discovered a little something tucked away in
the Mac X sys this morning...
Select a word, press command option D and a little pop-down
dictionary field comes up, you need to enable this in the
keyboard sys prefs. You can even scroll it and command for the
full dic to come up.
(... unfortunately.... er... it does not work in MT. But, think
positive, it sure does in Mail and Safari...)
