<p> Thanks for trying LiveDictionary. LiveDictionary is a Safari extension that adds fast, convenient dictionary lookups to the web. Once installed, it becomes a transparent part of Safari. LiveDictionary offers a wide array of dictionaries for technical terms, general language, and bilingual usage. </p>
<p> LiveDictionary interfaces with Safari using an Input Manager. Input Managers are small pieces of code that are automatically loaded into applications on your system. LiveDictionary uses this technique to load itself into Safari. Because of this, LiveDictionary is not a simple application, and it must be installed in the right location. </p>
<h2>Installing LiveDictionary</h2>
<p> You can install LiveDictionary using the <i>LiveDictionary Installer</i> next to where you found this README. You will have the option of installing LiveDictionary for all users on your computer or just for yourself. Installing LiveDictionary for yourself does not require administrator access. </p>
<p> To use LiveDictionary, point your mouse cursor to the word you want to look up. By default, that word's dictionary entry will appear automatically after a short delay, if the word has an entry in the dictionary. <br clear=all></p>
<p> You can customize LiveDictionary's appearance, change dictionaries, and install new ones from the LiveDictionary menu which appears in Safari. </p>
<p> LiveDictionary comes with the <a href="http://www.cogsci.princeton.edu/~wn/">WordNet 2.0 English Dictionary</a> to get you started, but a wide variety of dictionaries can be downloaded for free within LiveDictionary. <br clear=all></p>
<h2>Shareware</h2>
<p> LiveDictionary is shareware. You may use LiveDictionary for free until you have used Safari for ten days. (Days where you don't use Safari don't count, so don't worry about running out your trial period without getting a chance to try it.) After that, you will be limited to five minutes per launch until you register. You may purchase LiveDictionary for $25 from the <a href="http://store.esellerate.net/mikeash/store/">online store</a> or directly within LiveDictionary. When ordering from within LiveDictionary, your order is processed right away and the serial number is automatically delivered directly to LiveDictionary, and you will also get a confirmation e-mail with all of the necessary details. </p>
<p> LiveDictionary comes with a 30-day guarantee. If you are not satisfied with your purchase, please contact us and we will try to resolve your problem. If your problem cannot be resolved, the purchase price will be refunded. </p>
