I have tried to use OpenDictionary from Script Editor 1.9's menu and it simply will not allow me to view to view its own dictionary. It doesn't show in the extensive drop-down list of APPLs and it is grayed out in "browse" mode. Drag and drop onto self is problematical in Finder.

I really thought it was because Script Editor used the "AppleScript dictionary" but that does sound curious now that I think about it. Other processes - osascript - need that one.

So just how do I view the Script Editor's dictionary? MacOS 10.2.6 with all internet-announced updates.
