Under 2.0 I used Jiro Nakamura's Define program to define words in Websters from the command line. Under 3.0, it looks like the calls Jiro uses (i.e. openReference) have gone away. Have they been replaced by something or has NeXT intentionally removed command line access to references? Jeff Wishnie jwishnie@taligent.com

It hasn't helped that my Websters has someone been corrupted as well.... It seems that NeXT chose not to document the calls necessary for programmatic access to Websters and I chose to save my $$$ by not ask_nexting them.
