The one that I really hated was an OOo extension - language lab, I think. They had two grammar checker / thesaurus add-ons and I thought this one was better, then I wound up turning it off because it flagged every possible error (most of which weren't). I didn't see anything like this on the TDF site. You might find it more useful than I did, but again I don't recommend it. As for stand-alone grammar checkers, you might have luck with Google.... -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to users+h...@libreoffice.org List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/www/users/ *** All posts to this list are publicly archived for eternity ***
