Well, there hasn't been a discussion about that so far. I like it because it just does what I had in mind. Probably we can replace the server side spellchecking with aspell or something similar one day but the client script is very nice.
An other thoughts?

I think it integrates into RC perfectly -- though I haven't seen your implementation, I suppose CVS is a little behind as usual. And yeah, keep the client, pack aspell in and we're all set. I like it.

If we could also have aspell added it would be perfect as there are a lot more languages supported.

That would be a perfect complement to the recently implemented spell checker: If you have aspell install on your server, you can specify a path to the script in the config file and if not, RC uses the Google spell check.
All we have to do, is to implement an aspell wrapper that works with the GoogieSpell client script. As I can read on the GoogieSpell website there might be something available: "I also offer a Python Aspell server solution that supports around 80 languages and isn't dependent on Google."
Is anybody keen on writing a PHP implementation of this?

Thomas Is this in CVS yet? I looked this morning and I still don't have it. No rush, just looking forward to testing it out.

As usual: the anonymous CVS is hours or even days behind. I committed the files yesterday evening (GMT).

Hours or days? Try weeks, or lately even months. As suggested by someone before, I strongly support the idea that RC moves away from SF. There seems to be some highly skilled people on this list, Im sure we could setup a CVS or svn dedicated to RC if we tried.

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.
~Thomas
Is there a way to make it if google changes there methods or down it does not leave the clients in the air? I know this is an unlikely occurance but I am just always nervous about depending on others services.

Another option may be phpSpell: http://www.master-technology.com/demos/spell/
It was originally written for BB or forum type software, but seems like it would be a good fit for RC as well. I recently implemented this on several phpBB forums that I maintain and it is working very well.
- it supports multiple languages
- supports learning
- doesn't rely on 3rd party service
- uses php, mysql and java; two of which are already in play with RC
- would be a snap to integrate

Check out Drupal, someone has implemented the google spell module, and have the same long term plans of converting it to use aspell...something to watch as it'll be php based likely...

You're correct...just javascript. Brain fart on that one, sorry. I just saw it including a file and assumed it was an applet; it was just javascript.

I'd be keen to give this a go. I've checked out the website and the only mention I located was in a blog entry from April 5th where he says:
"Anyway, I have been pretty productive lately, but I just haven't released anything. Upcoming releases:
* GoogieSpell 3 - Ajax spelling on dope. This version rocks!
* Nox spelling server - A little Python server that can serve spell service. Uses the same XML format as Google's spell service. I.e. it can be used with GoogieSpell.
Have you heard anything about the source for this? Or perhaps is it not released yet? I can drop him an email otherwise.
Thanks!
