I am planing on writting a spelling checker for ascii files (TeX also) on the Macintosh. I was just wondering if anyone knows of a public domain dictionary. Just a list of words, in ascii format. I figured there must be something like that out there somewhere. It doesn't have to be one the mac, actually since it is ascii, it could be anywere, and mailed over. (maybe in pieces...) So, If anyone has the faintest Idea as to a public domain dictionary, Please type 'r' now, so I can get more work done. Please mail all replys to me, and if someone asks, I will post a summary, (not the dictonary.. :-) Thanks to All.... -- Mike Houle | | If I really had an opinion, and you !
