TinySpell 1.7 beta - Spell Check in All Your Programs
Posted by: Barry Cleave in Freeware, tags: Freeware, My Free Review, Programs, Software, spell check, Utility, Windows, Windows XPWhat Does It Do - The Essentials?
tinySpell provides a simple way of spell checking all your keyboard text input applications and the first word copied to the clipboard. It also provides spelling suggestions and correction of the misspelled word. It monitors your typing “on the fly” and alerts you whenever a spelling error is detected. This latest version, 1.7 beta, has a new visual spelling “tooltip” alert next to the word and a single press of the down arrow key brings up the spelling suggestions dialog. This new functionality is a great leap forward for the program.
N.B. This is a review of a beta stage version and therefore some comments and conclusions may not apply to the final release version.
