Scott,
Gratuities:
Thanks for this, I really learned a lot from it. I am curious about
the "Learn" -- CustomDict.txt -- feature. I found the file
CustomDict.txt created in the DemoSpellChecker Folder and created a
few "fake" words to have the system learn them. Well it seems to work
across openings of the stack.
SpellChecker question:
My question is 'where' is it saving these custom dictionary words? I
checked the CustomDict.txt file and it appears empty. I checked for
custom properties etc. but to no avail. I did find the
WriteCustomDictionary function but can not find where it might be
called from?
Revolution question:
Is there a way in rev to find out based on the name of a function
where it is called from in a stack across objects/scripts etc.? I
tried the find and replace method and I only get the function and not
any place it might be called from.
Thanks
Tom

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,
