Abstract: An improved system and method of electronic check processing at an existing point-of-sale system. The system utilized to implement the present invention includes at least one point-of-sale (POS) terminal, a verification system, and an electronic settlement network. The POS terminal includes a printer, MICR scanner, and optical scanner. When a customer presents a check to pay for a transaction at the POS, the checker runs the check through an MICR scanner, which captures the MICR information from the check. The MICR information is forwarded to the verification system for approval of the check for ECC. Once the check is approved for ECC, the purchaser's contact information is scanned from the face of the check by the optical scanner, and the digitized contact information is utilized along with other information from the transaction to create an ECC Agreement slip, which is printed on the high speed receipt printer. The agreement slip includes a signature line for the purchaser sign.

Abstract: The present invention is a method of searching an on-line dictionary in any language representation using syllables and syllable count and an on-line dictionary, where the on-line dictionary includes a primary headword field, a segmented primary headword field, additional unsegmented language representation (headword) fields as required, additional segmented representation (headword) fields as required, a syllable count field, additional syllable count fields as required, and a definition field. The user selects a language representation for a query and makes the query in the selected language representation. The present invention then parses the query to determine if segmented syllables were used in the query and how many, if any. If no segmented syllables were used in the query, a character string search for the headword that matches the query is conducted. If the query contains segmented syllables, a syllable search for headwords that contain the same syllables in the same locations is conducted.
