[comp.sys.misc] Spelling checker routines

S1CH@SDSUMUS.BITNET (Brian Piersel) (04/25/89)

I'm considering writing a spelling checker for myself, but I am
wondering about one thing. Checking to see if a word is spelled
correctly (based on the dictionary) seems fairly simple, but I
also would like to have it suggest correct spellings for misspelled
words. Does anyone know of a good way to do that? I don't need
the actual code, just the basic steps to follow (pseudo-code,
that kind of stuff...). Thanks in advance.
