I'm actually very tired of every program on the planet coming
with it's own spelling checker. When is someone going to create
a no-cost, cross-platform spellcheck system that we can use for
all our applications?
Unix has ispell which works for my needs. I don't need or want
MS Word's feature of underlining a word as soon as I've
misspelled it. I'm just fine with spellchecking my docs just
before I publish or send them. I do want a single spellchecker
instead of five or six on my computer.
We've come up with Open JVM Integration (OJI) so that we can use
anyone's Java engine. How about someone creating OSCI, Open
Spell-Checker Integration?
Just a thought,
Yancey
