I've now found the information required to use multi-lingual
dictionaries in an RB implementation of the Apple Spell Checker,
thanks.

Does anyone know how to obtain (preferably programmatically) the
short codes or constants for each of the language dictionaries for
the Cocoa spell checker?
(...and if they do, would they please tell me? ;-))

The ElfData plugin has a fuzzy lookup algorithm inbuilt.

It was previously a secret feature, but I eventually realised that the technique while novel, is impossible to protect with patents due to the ease of making analogues, and so it's not a secret feature anymore.

Anyhow, it's a code that can work for spelling in any language you have a dictionary for, on all platforms that RB supports (Win, Lin, Mac). The dictionary could be as simple as a plain text file with carriage returns.
