Subject:Dictionary Question From:"James M. Lockard" <norton -at- MCS -dot- NET> Date:Wed, 15 Jan 1997 20:43:24 +0000
Tech. writers,
My coworkers and I are preparing an in-house style guide. We want to choose
a dictionary to rely on, but we were curious about what dictionaries other
technical writers preferred.
If you have a preference for a particular brand, please reply to me
personally. Later, I'll summarize the responses I receive for the list.
TIA,
James Lockard
