They are not perfect though, since Kindle won't let you do a text search like Google (within the book). If you search for word1 and word2 it shows either, with no way to require both. It ignores quotes so you can't search for a phrase.

And last but not least, you can't search for a specific term, without searching for all occurrences of the term in the book. There is no way to code a dictionary type book without finding all occurrences of the search term used in the definitions of other terms.

I've been working on a dictionary of nautical terms if any of you have the time to proof it. It's not huge but has all the words I can think of.

Thanks!
