Abstract

Word Finder is recommended for those who use a personal computer for writing materials such as reports, manuals, and letters, in which careful choice of words is important. It is convenient to use and significantly speeds synonym lookup, but is limited in the number of available synonyms. Printed thesauri generally provide five times as many synonyms.
