     The package 'wordnet' tries to locate a valid WordNet installation
     on start up by investigating the 'WNHOME' environment variable and
     by trying default installation locations. On success it acquires a
     pointer to the actual WordNet dictionary and stores internally a
     reference to the dictionary instance. However, if this procedure
     does not work automatically in your environment, you can provide
     the path to the WordNet installation and set the internal default
     reference via this function.
