Default Spelling Help-OT but usefull-and not spam

Greetings All,
I know, in the subject I spelled useful wrong. I thought it might
attract attention. There are many words that pass a spell checker
czech butt still are knot the wright word. I use a freeware program
for spelling checks of words I'm not sure of that also gives the
definition of the word. It is called Word Web. The free version
installs a limited dictionary in your computer. If the word cannot be
found in this limited dictionary you have the option of looking on the
webby clicking a link. This will look for the word in several places
on the web, wikipedia for example, and you can click on any of these
links, all at no charge. I use this free version a lot and just
thought other folks here might find it useful. All the usual
disclaimers apply, this not spam.
Cheers,
Eric

Hey Eric,

Sooooo......how do we find it??

Take care.

Brian Lawson,
Bothwell, Ontario.

ps... used to be, long ago, that the "dictionary" for spell checking
files were called *.lex for "lexicon". But those days seem to have
passed. I would DEARLY love to be able to REMOVE a couple of words in
the spell-check of Agent and Eudora. I regularly do a typo where the
typo is a properly spelled word, so it gets past. The word "form"
comes to mind when I meant to type in "from".
