[DM-MUG] dashboard dictionary

[CW Smith]

When you look up you word (I've looked up "lam" again as an example),  
you can click the tabbed letter on the left (in this case "L") for a  
list of words nearby in the dictionary list. Click on the next word  
you want to lookup (I've clicked on the second variation "Lam") to see  
its definition.
