                                 KEYWORD V1.00
                                 ─────────────

                       USING KEYWORD COULDN'T BE SIMPLER
                       ─────────────────────────────────

     When you run Keyword it will prompt you for a key word. This will be 
     the root word from which you your search starts. So all you do is 
     enter a word similar to the one you're looking for (or even just 
     vaguely connected to the general subject).
     
     For example, if you have used the word CREATE a couple of times in 
     a paragraph and now you need a different one, just enter:

        CREATION

     and press return twice.

     You will then be offered the choice of selecting one of the 
     following categories:

        NON-IMITATION
        PRODUCTION
        WORLD
        ANIMATE-MATTER
        IMAGINATION
        CAUSE
        PRODUCER
        ARTIST
        DIVINITY

     Move the cursor, using the cursor keys, until PRODUCTION is highlighted 
     and press Return again.

     At this point you will be shown a list of words, among which you'll 
     see the likely contenders:

        CONSTRUCT
        PROLIFIC

     and so on.

     If any of these words is close to the one you're looking for but not 
     absolutely suitable, just select it with the cursor keys and press 
     Return to see a new list of words more closely related to it.


                                  FREE ROAMING
                                  ────────────

     Using the cursor keys and Return you can 'roam' indefinately through 
     Keyword, following avenues of thought, tracing words back to their 
     roots or finding words of opposite meaning.

     And if at any point you wish to enter a new key word just type it in 
     and press Return for the whole process to begin again.


                                    SCANNING
                                    ────────

     A useful feature of Keyword is the ability to scan through the entire 
     dictionary. To do this, type a letter when a word is highlighted. Then 
     press backspace to remove the letter and press Return.

     The dictionary will then be displayed page by page. If you see a word 
     you are interested in press:

        n

     at the 'More?' prompt, and select it in the usual way using the cursor 
     keys and Return.

     Alternatively you can scan through smaller areas of the dictionary by 
     entering one or more letters. For example, typing:

        th

     followed by Return instructs Keyword to display all words beginning 
     with th.

                                ────────────────

     of synonims, although useful, is limited. If you would like the full
