The Speller
The Spell Checker Library for C++
All programs and documentation are
Copyright 1995,(c) by Yucatan Electronic Assembly.
OVERVIEW
The Speller is a MS-DOS spell checker. A MS-Windows spell checking dll
is also available. It works with all major C++ compilers. This library uses
several correction algorithms. In terms of finding correct suggestions for
mispelled words our library produces results equivalent to any major commercial
word processors. It uses a very fast lookup algorithm. These routines work with
little noticeable overhead in real time (suggestion list as well as check) on a
386/33sx. The dictionary can be stored in XMS memory or on the disk (This is
essential for debugging real mode dos programs). The library has data compression
algorithms built in to compress the dictionary on the fly and use much less memory.
As this is the first public release of The Speller we would very much
like to hear all comments and suggestions. If you feel we can improve our
library in any way let us know and we will send you an updated version as soon
it is available.
Please forward your comments, and/or suggestions to:
