Spell-Checking in Aquamacs

Aquamacs provides advanced spell-checking with high-quality dictionaries in more than 85 languages.

Spell-Checking is distributed separately from the main download, so you only need to download and install the dictionaries that you actually need.

You can either install CocoAspell, a spell-checker that integrates with OS X and provides the same high-quality dictionaries in other OS X applications.

Or, just install

• The base package Aspell for either PowerPC (download 1.1MB) or Intel (download 3.0MB) Macs.
• One or more dictionaries such as for
  • English for either PowerPC (download 217K) or Intel (download 217K)
  • Another language, provided by the GNU Project. Downloads require manual installation as explained here.

Installer packages designed by Anton Leuski at USC. Aspell is a spell-checking engine provided by the GNU Project. If you can produce installer packages for other languages, please help the Aquamacs project by contributing.
