Sorry for my not having been specific enough.

It helps to define your terms. heh heh
cmpm:
This might be done through a clipboard helper program.
When I double click my clipboard entry it auto loads in the browser search box.
If it is open.
So maybe a clipboard program could be tweaked to load in the clip in open programs with a search box.
This does work with TheSage and ClipMate.
I think it will only work with the program that has focus though.
TheSage is the only dictionary on my computer.

Is there another worthy dictionary to download?

If you wanted to search specific dictionaries then you may be able to cobble something together with a macro to open new tab, then use site:merriam-webster.com word or site:thefreedictionary.com sesquipedalian-MilesAhead (November 18, 2010, 05:05 PM)

The dictionaries I am talking about are software ones, not on-line.

Oh... I misunderstood too. I was allowing to use the websites; I didn't realize they were software based.

Did someone do a NANY based on this idea? (using websites - I've lost track of the NANY entries...)

I did... the regex's used to get the definitions aren't as good as they should be right now, and I have a couple of features to add, but it's functional.
