Introduction ------------ Gnome Spell is GNOME/Bonobo component for spell checking. In current 0.1 version it contains GNOME::Spell::Dictionary object, which provides spell checking dictionary (see Spell.idl for exact API definition). It's based on pspell package, which is required to build gnome-spell. Dictionary object could be used for live spell checking. Look in test-spell.c or in gtkhtml/components/html-editor/spell.c for sample usage. In future it will be expanded by implementation of GNOME::Spell::Checker object (see also Spell.idl) and also by spell checking dialog control with appropriate interface. Pspell build ------------ From my experience with pspell I recommend you to build pspell/aspell this way: 1) build and install pspell 2) build and install aspell 4) build and install GNOME Spell You could get Pspell and Aspell from: http://pspell.sourceforge.net/ http://aspell.sourceforge.net/ End --- I hope you will find the GNOME Spell usefull.
