hi there, i realise the flyspell and spell checking .el files heavily depend upon spell/ispell/aspell being installed on the system, but many modern GUI libs (such as GTK+2 with GtkSpell and OS X's Aqua/Cocoa) have the ability to add spell checking to any text-input window. can anyone see this kind of spellchecking becoming available in GNU Emacs in the future?
in GTK+2 it is really just a 2-liner in the source to add the support. but of course that won't do context stuff (like not checking maths equations in LaTeX mode) but i'm sure it could be worked around. at the moment i have to maintain 2 dictionaries on OS X as Emacs is not making use of the system one, its quite irritating... also, these methods are *much* faster than flyspell. _______________________________________________ Help-gnu-emacs mailing list Help-gnu-emacs@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-gnu-emacs
