In the long run, perhaps the most promising development of computer use is on-line editing of dictionaries, as of other kinds of data. On-line means "having direct access to the computer file", usually by means of a video screen with an attached keyboard. Although on-line editing has been and is being employed in some dictionary projects, it is still not widely used, which is why discussion of it has been delayed until now.In on-line editing, the editor can summon to the display unit any identified element of the current file in order to see it, change it, transfer it to another part of the file, or delete it. The great advantage of on-line editing is the immediate availability of the very latest file data. In ordinary editing, no one editor can know what other editors have done to other parts of the file without s
me delay —— often a long one —— and without laborious checking of card files or manuscript. Without knowing what is in the file, the editor may make mistakes or duplicate work already done. On-line editing makes style checking easier and has many other advantages.Up until very recently, however, attempts to prepare dictionaries on-line have been plagued with difficulties and have seldom materialized on a large scale. The Dictionary of American Regional English,for example,which as we have seen uses computers extensively,was originally planned to have been written and edited on-line, but it was found to be easier to write it conventionally, while using information produced by computer on video screens. In the United States, the Random House Dictionary was one of the first major commercial dictionaries to utilize computers to store and categorize word lists, but the dictionary was not written or edited on-line.Neither was the American Heritage Dictionary, which used computers even more extensively to help produce its citation files. A scholarly historical work, the Dictionary of Old English, is,however, being edited on-line at the University of Toronto.
