A simple list is would be functional. But don't forget to allow for the
importing of lists. The AGI (American Geological Institute) has a
geological dictionary in text format. It would be useful to be able to
create thesarus(dictionary) out of this for Endnote.
The ability to create thesaurus from text files does not need built
into the program. An external program to create the files is fine, since
most users will not need it (and it will keep the software weight down).
The external program might also be smart enough to know that some programs
user dictionaries, MS word, are really text files in disguise. And would
allow for users to import such files.
