I would recommand installing by hand. AppleWorks GS is very easy in
this case. It's just one big ~800k file. Then, just grab the
dictionary folder if you need it.
Hmm, is there an editor for editing AWGS's dictionary? I would like to
add words and definitions to the synomym (sp?) function, and use it as
an dictionary.
