of the dictionary files assembled, coordinated and edited by him to the

The Electronic Dictionary Research and Development Group

the Group

|

|
monies received for use of the files for the further
|
|
|
|
|
development of the files, and for research into computer lexicography and

|
|
|
|
electronic dictionaries.
