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.
