Help for Offline Version of Monier-Williams Dictionary

When you start mwapp.exe, you see two things happen:

  1. A terminal window opens; let's call this the mwapp window.
  2. A browser window opens, showing the basic display for the Monier-Williams dictionary. You enter you word searches in this window. You can also click on the Advanced Search link and use that display.
You may minimize the mwapp window, which shows technical messages related to your actions in the mwapp browser window.
When you want to stop using mwapp, you do so simply by closing (pressing the close box) on the mwapp window. When you do this, the mwapp browser window will still be visible, but no longer functional; so, you will probably want to close the mwapp browser window by closing its browser tab or window.
