[comp.sys.mac] info wanted on real-time spelling checker

pevans@umd5.umd.edu (Peter Evans) (01/23/90)

Does anyone know of a program which will sit
on-top-of/below/along-side another Mac application and will check the
spelling of text as it is input.  I seem to remember a DA a couple of
years ago which would work with most programs and would beep when an
unknown word was input.

Thanks for any assistance,
Peter Evans

I've heard and seen fantastic things from Thunder II. It is a very good
interactive spell checker. The whole thing is rolled up into a CDEV and
some rather large support files.

A nice feature about Thunder II is that you can specify which programs
and DAs you want it to check spelling in.
