From the SIPB Suggestion box in W20-575:
Suggestion: fix __thesaurus__.
recently, it has been running such that instead of giving
synonyms for your chosen word, it gives synonyms for every
word which begins with that combination of letters.
This is not an improvement. The word you actually wanted
synonyms for ends up way at the top of a long list, beyond
even the reach of a scrollbar.
I want synonyms for _ideal_. Not ideal, idealism, idealist,
ideality, and idealize.
Thank you. 10/13/93
