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. I have placed an example solution in the RevOnline User
Space under username "Scott" - or from the message box:

Hello everyone,
I had read somewhere that it is possible to access some built-in
Mac applications, such as Dictionary, directly from the command
line. Now I was wondering whether it would also be possible to
access those applications through Revolution. I'm doing research
that involves indexing all the words in big text files. Of course,
using the xTalk definition of a word as any quoted string or string
separated by one or more spaces leaves me with many words that are
not words we use in the sense of dictionary words, things like
acronyms, and others that aren't relevant to me because they are
proper nouns, such as company or product names. So I was hoping to
write a script that might check whether each of the words in my
index exists in the dictionary.
Any thoughts would be most appreciated.
Gregory
