      Please refer to the dictionary as "The Free On-line Dictionary

      The dictionary has been growing since 1985 and now contains
      over 13000 definitions totalling nearly five megabytes of
      text.  Entries are cross-referenced to each other and to
      related resources elsewhere on the net.
   
      Where {LaTeX} commands for certain non-{ASCII} symbols are
      mentioned, they are described in their own entries.  "\" is
      also used to represent the Greek lower-case lambda used in
      {lambda-calculus}.  Cross-references to other entries look
      {like this}.  Note that not all cross-references actually lead
      anywhere yet, but if you find one that leads to something
      inappropriate, please {let me know (feedback.html)}.  Dates
      after entries indicate when that entry was last updated.  They
      do not imply that it was up-to-date at that time.
   
      You can search the latest version of the dictionary by {WWW}
      (URL http://www.foldoc.org/).  If you find an entry that
      is wrong or inadequate please let me know.
   
      See {Pronunciation} for how to interpret the pronunciation
      given for some entries.
