Personally, spelling bees in elementary school for me were a drag. I just couldn't spell correctly. I was always the first to sit down! Acckkk!! Who would have thought that in the future, I wouldn't need to worry about getting every word right by looking in a dictionary!
With APSC Spell Checker, spelling correction is made easy for just about any document that you display on your computer. With just a few mouse clicks, you can correct that spelling in your Web mail, simple text editor, or anywhere where a spell checker is needed (like a spelling bee :) ) that doesn't have one already!
Features...........
As any standard spell checker found in the big boys, this one works well. There is a bit of a process involved in getting it to work, but considering that you can check just about anything with text, It's well worth the bit of effort involved in getting this bit of code to work properly.
The process involves getting the words copied into your clipboard. You can press the "Find your Message" text box at the top of the APSC window which collects all the text from any box you click on. A simple highlight and right click to copy will also do the trick. Then, click the paste icon to input the words to the frame. Click spell, and away you go.
The program will list what it finds spelt wrong and gives you suggestions to put in it's place. A few simple clicks, and you're done. Running five test words, I found that the suggestions given by the APSC Spell Checker were similar in context and content as those given by both Star Office, and Word 2000. It's standard dictionary seems quite complete!!
After checking the spelling, it is simply a matter of copying the text back to the clipboard via the copy icon and clicking on the "Send Text Back to Message" box, or by going back into the original document where you will highlight the old text, press "Ctrl-V" and volia, your text is as it was except for the spelling. A quick save and you're finished.
The spelling window stays on top and can be minimized into a small bar which fits hidden in any place you choose. Here's a small picture of the program minimized:
