Garrett,
This topic has kept my interest for some time.
Jean-Baptiste LE STANG has written an AppleScript extension <
http://www.lestang.org/ > that allows a link to Apple's OSX spell
checking engine. It can be used with Revolution to create a spell
checker. Obviously it requires OSX (version 10.3 or better,
actually) and so will not provide the general solution that the
others (and myself) are looking for.
I have placed an example solution in the RevOnline User Space under
username "Scott" - or from the message box:
go URL "http://elementarysoftware.com/rev_demos/spellcheck_demo.rev";
I continue working towards a more generalized solution... an attempt
at which I have just recently included in a Beta application. My
biggest difficulties have been with speed (checking more than 2 pages
of text becomes poky) and with returning good phonetic suggestions.
For word banks I am using:
Spell Checking Oriented Word Lists (SCOWL)
by Kevin Atkinson
http://wordlist.sourceforge.net/
For returning phonetic suggestions I am using a variation of Double
Metaphone, based on Lawrence Phillips algorithm.
If I ever come up with something solid I'll be sure and notify the
list. : )

Greetings,
Has anyone ever found a way to add spell checking ability into
resulting rev apps?
Thanks,
