Lisp code to access dictionary information from the Webster's Seventh
Dictionary.

There are two servers on the net, a {\tt dictionary} server on the AMT
machine and a {\tt webster} server on OZ.  The dictionary server is the
prefered one to use because it is faster.

You can get the pronunciation for a word.  At present, pronunciation is in
the Webster internal format, which is not very useful.

You can also get an entry for a word.
This information is a structure
called {\tt webster-entry}.  Slots are {\tt name} (a string), {\tt
pronunciation} (a string) {\tt definition} (a string), {\tt part-of-speech}
(nil or a symbol).



{\tt get-word-information-tcp} {\it  word}\\
Uses the DICTIONARY protocol.

{\tt get-word-pronunciation} {\it word}\\

{\tt get-word-information-net} {\it word}\\
Uses WEBSTER protocol.

{\tt print-definition-to-window} {\it definition} {\it window}\\
The window must have fonts from {\tt WEBSTER-REQUIRED-FONTS} in its font map
