    Thank you for a great widget! (I use Mac 10.5.8)

    Issues:

    1. If I want to look up different meanings of a word, for example for the word "set," I have to type in "set[2]" or set[3]." Is there a way that just typing "set" can allow me to choose the other meanings without having to guess a number and type "[#]"?

    2. If the widget can't find the word (for example, try "set[4]" or "asdf") the widget crashes and is taken off the dashboard.

    If these could be improved, it would be amazing!! Thank you!

    The widget works well for entering a word that you are uncertain of its spelling - it feeds back to you several words that you may have intended in a list.

    But, when you select one of these words (in the list) it will not take you to that word's definition! You have to cut/copy the word and paste it in the box. It seems that the widget should automatically link you to the definition of the new word from the list... a simple flaw that I hope gets corrected!
