I want to write a very simple Spell Checker. The spell checker will try to match the input word with equivalent words form the dictionary.
What can be done to find those 'equivalent words'? What analysis can be preformed on two words to mark them equivalent?
...
Can anybody recommend a good (ideally open source) C++ spell checker library. We are currenly using Talo, which isn't very good, so we are looking to change.
One which includes a grammar checker would also be good.
Thanks

I have just discovered a variable name that is misspelled. If it were hidden away in the depths of code, that would be fine, but this variable name ends up in a configuration that is stored with visibility to the customer. It's really not a big deal, but I wonder if there is a way to avoid it?
In this case the variable name is a compo...
Hello
I'm trying to spell check and send an outlook e-mail using the following macro:

Dim oMail As Outlook.MailItem
Dim oDoc As Word.Document
Set oMail = Application.ActiveInspector.CurrentItem

oMail.Save
oDoc.Content.LanguageID = wdGerman

I'm sure more than a few of you will have seen the Google Wave demonstration. I was wondering about the spell checking technology specificially. How revolutionary is a spell checker which works by figuring out where a word appears contextually within a sentence to make these suggestions ?
I haven't seen this technique before, but are...

I'm using ASP.NET webforms and lots of javascript/jQuery. I'm looking for a really simple and easy way to implement spell checking for a single text area in IE (since all the other browsers implement their own spell checking). I usually stay away from IE specific technologies but I'm willing to make an exception since I only need the f...
Has anyone found a workaround yet for getting custom dictionary support working for the built in spellchecking on WPF TextBoxes/RichTextBoxes? We've been probing the spelling stuff with reflector hoping to find where the dictionary entries are coming from, but it's looking very much like it's going to be a COM object....
I know it's not...
Was evaluating adding spell check to a product I own. As per my research the major decisions that need to be made:
The library to use.
Dictionary( this can be region specific, British english, American etc).
Exclusion lists. Anytime a typo is detected its possible that its not a typo but is
verbiage specific to the user. At this poi...
I know this is not a straight up question, so if you need me to provide more information about the scope of it, let me know. There are a bunch of questions that address almost the same issue (they are linked here), but never the exact same one with the same kind of scope and objective - at least as far as I know.
Context:
I have a M...
I followed the tutorial described here, in order to make the TinyMCE Spellchecker work on a Webforms application. But I tried to do the very same thing on a MVC project and keep getting errors every time I try to use the spellchecker.
I'd like to know what changes or adjustments I need to make in order to make this word on an ASP .NET M...
I am looking for a free spelling checker that is compatible with FCKeditor and would work with FF & IE.
I am aware of Speller pages. Speller pages requires installing PHP and execute permissions to cmd.exe (scary?).

I'm looking to display text with the wavey red lines where a word is misspelt, but I only want the text to be selectable, not editable. If I set the TextBox's IsReadOnly property to True or IsEnabled to False, the wavey red lines disappear and I can't get around it by putting something transparent as this will prevent the user being able...
I'm using MSWord interop to check grammar/spell in my application. I'm using these steps to do this:
1) Create a new Single Thread Apartment to not lock my application's form
2) Disable the input of my application
3) Using reflection (to be MSOffice version independent), I'm using this code to open Word:
objWord = System.Activator.Cre...
All the decent browsers (Chrome, FX, etc) now support built-in spell checking.
However the popular but rubbish axis of IE doesn't (not even IE8 - pointless 'accelerators': yes, much needed dictionary support: no). Unless you download an excellent free plugin, but you can't expect corp users to do that.
Our clients want spell checking i...
I like that vim 7.0 supports spell checking via :set spell, and I like that it by default only checks comments and text strings in my C code. But I wanted to find a way to change the behavior so that vim will know that when I write words containing underscores, I don't want that word spell checked.
The problem is that I often will refer...
I have the following requirement: -
I have many (say 1 million) values (names).
The user will type a search string.
I don't expect the user to spell the names correctly.
So, I want to make kind of Google "Did you mean". This will list all the possible values from my datastore. There is a similar but not same question here. This did no...
I am looking for a spell checker for c++ source code. Unfortunately all I can find is Visual Studio specific. I would like something which works on Linux.
Edit:
Ultimately I want to automate it in some way. I am not very proficient in spell checking, but what I am thinking of is a not-interactive console tool which prints error messag...
I am looking to possibly add in some sort of spellchecking/correction in PHP, is there anything that is recommended?
Is this a slow process? It would be for user submitted blog posts and forum post, possibly even just be used in an admin area if performance is not good.
