     I am looking for a spell checker to work with WordPerfect 5.1
that learns how I correct spelling errors.  I want a spell checker
to tell me when I have an error and remember how I corrected that
error, so when succeeding occurrences of the same error are found
they will be automatically corrected.  I would like to use this
type of software in conjunction with a document scanner.  Thanks in
advance.

Instead of trying to hack WP 5.1, why not give PC Write a try? I am doing what
you are describing all the time, and I love the ability to configure the
spelling checker myself. Heck, I'll even show you how for free if you want
more info. Send response to e-mail.
