Settings in the ‘Preferences’ dialog enable you to specify whether new dictionary entries should be uppeer case when they are created, and also gives you the option of converting the case of dictionaries when they are opened. Although Apple’s supplied sample dictionary uses uppercase entries, others (e.g. that provided with Speaker 1.1.4) are in lowercase.
You can also specify some setting for newly-saved dictionary resources, namely the ID and the dict resource, and its file type. Speaker’s dictionary file has type ‘dict’, whereas most other speech applications seem happy to open files of type ‘rsrc’.
