Does anyone out there know of the existence of some sort of spell checker for LaTeX. I do quite large documents and they are a pain to spellcheck by hand. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Computer Science Department, | shark@batserver.cs.uq.oz.au | | University of Queensland, Australia.| "BACK OFF MAN !

I have found that the best spellchecker for TeX on a PC is MicroSpell
by Trigram. Works really well and is reasonably priced--about $50-60.

One can do same with MicroSpell of MicroEmacs fame (merge the commands with dmerge compress the new file wit cdict) on ms-dos unix and lots of other operating systems. regards, el -- Dr. Eberhard W.
