=== Instant lookup === Starting with version 3.0 in both the Basic and Pro suites, Trillian makes use of the English-language version of the [[Wikipedia]] free online encyclopedia for real-time referencing using its [[database]] of free knowledge. The feature is employed directly within a conversation window of a user. When one or more words are entered (by either user), Trillian checks all words against a database file and if a match is found, the word appears with a dotted green underline. When users point their [[Computer mouse|mouse]] over the word, the lead paragraph of the corresponding article is [[download]]ed from Wikipedia and displayed on screen as a [[tooltip]]. When users click on the underlined word, they are given the choice to visit the article [[online]].
