>Subject: Re: #5057 Proofing Tools for Claris/AppleWorks

------------------
I recall that Claris used to have additional dictionaries for sale,
including Spanish, listed on their web site. Now that Apple has taken over
Works again, I am not sure of it's status.

There is also a free Spell Checker for the Mac called Excalibur 2.6
available at:
http://www.eg.bucknell.edu/~excalibr/excalibur.html

It can work directly with Claris Works 5.0 and presumably Apple Works 5.0
through Word Services.

There are free dictionaries for Excalibur in English, Spanish, French,
German, and Italian. There are also dictionaries for Catalan, Danish,
Dutch, Manx, and Portuguese.
