-> 	While looking through the files on NS 3.0, which I finally received
-> Tuesday after a five month wait, I noticed that in Webster's there is both a
-> CompactDictionary and a Dictionary.  The Compact is 13.6 Meg, while
-> Dictionary is 20.3 Meg.  Are both necessary, or can I delete the compact and
-> free up a lot of space?

I "think" the data is redundant. I've removed the compact dict and have 
had no prob.
