I am pretty sure you can also use aspell with the other alternitive I have brought up in the past called ajax spell ... it can use pspell and aspell i believe
What I like in ajax spell:
- "Add to dictionary" function
- Does not send my text to Google
What I don't like in ajax spell:
- New server request to show corrections
- Missing option to type the correct word
Over all GoogieSpell provides a better user interaction and I like that all suggestions are fetched with one request (gzipping the XML response should bring the data to an acceptable size).
If you have aspell or pspell installed RC should definitely use these but for 5$ hosting packages that do not allow any installations, GoogieSpell is a good alternative.
As mentioned before, I definitely would like to have an aspell wrapper that acts like the Google spell checker. In that case the server script can decide which engine to use.
