Hello SW List, and Stephen!
Yes...The source field is very nice and thank you for giving credit to 
our computer programs...That ties our work together and I will put some 
links to your dictionary too, on the SignBank site...so we can build 
visitors that way.

At the moment, the SignWriter Java program dictionary holds 3,100 
American signs total...and even that is considered to be a small 
dictionary...so it is true that your online work could become rather 
large in time...smile...Congrats on the 1464! That is a lot already ;-)

Val ;-)
