Re: [libreoffice-users] UK thesaurus

The one I use is Artha, which is an offline one.  IT is not a spell 
checking dictionary, but, it is a dictionary and has many thesaurus 
types of information.

I prefer offline ones since laptop users may not have Internet access 
when they need to use a thesaurus or find what the word actually means.

http://artha.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/Home

There are binaries for Windows and Linux.  Many distros of Linux have 
Artha in their repositories.

Once it is loaded, it stays loaded until you reboot.  You reopen it with 
Ctrl Alt W or whatever keyboard shortcut you define other than the default.

I have not installed it in a long while, so I do not remember if it used 
your system's default language or if you can choose the language[s] you 
want to use.
