the 'Copyright' file. In summary, it is the same copyright as X11 is
subject to.

 This software is (hopefully) compliant to the proposed Internet standard
by Rik Faith and Bret Martin. It can be found at MYTHICAL_PLACE. You need
Java 1.1 to compile and use this set of classes, as BufferedReader and
friends were used to make my life easier. (I detest having to do character
array IO) The applet is really quite neat. You can use Rik Faith's keen
dict server and the applet to give people a nice way to look up or match
words and stuff.

 There is a bit of JavaDoc based documentation to this code. Its really
quite simple though. AWTDictLookup.java has a reference to dict.org,
simply change that to your favorite dict server for best use.

 I'm quite interested in any suggestions as to how I could make the code
more elegant. Anybody who can tell what parts of Java I am dreadfully
fascinated with gets a cookie.

Hail Eris!
