We do already have some multi-megabyte dictionary files in /usr/share/dict. However -- we don't have the jargon file. Not only that this can often serve as a good documentation in particular for newbies, but it's also a very fine source for random text (while the normal word lists only contain ordered text). The dictionaries are an optional distribution part anyway, so only people who are interested will need to install them. Opinions? -- cheers, J"org joerg_wunsch@uriah.heep.sax.de -- http://www.sax.de/~joerg/ -- NIC: JW11-RIPE Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
