Technological aids
The development of machine aids, such as the computer,
has been heralded by some as ushering in a new era in
lexicography. Although the computer can do well in many
tasks of great drudgery--mechanical excerpting of texts,
alphabetizing, and classifying by designated descriptors--it is
limited to what a human being tells it to do. It is difficult
for a computer to sort out homographs--separate words
that are spelled alike; and, at the editing stage, the delicate
decisions must be humanly made.
The computer can be used to good advantage in the
compilation of concordances of individual authors or of limited
texts, and then one type of dictionary could be made by a
summation of concordances. Such a procedure, with a large body
of literature like that of the Renaissance, would overwhelm an
editor. More feasible, perhaps, is the establishment of a
computerized archive that would never be published, but would
serve as a storehouse from which, by advanced retrieval methods,
the desired information could be called forth at will. The Trésor
de la langue française of Nancy, already mentioned, is a
step in this direction.
