Subject: need electronic glossary of auto industry terms
To: Multiple recipients of list WINHLP-L <WINHLP-L -at- HUMBER -dot- BITNET>
our ap. has a spelling checker in it, and I've been given the task of
finding or developing a glossary of auto industry terms to include
in the spelling checker's dictionary. I called SAE, and they have
a printed glossary available... does anyone know whether there is
a simple list of auto industry terms (like transaxle and mph) available
in electronic form, so I don't have to retype?
btw, the rationale for giving this assignment to me is because, as
a winhelp developer, I put words in electronic form, and the spelling
checker dictionary consists of words in electronic form... <g>
I love this place.
