Can anyone who successfully uses 'AlphaSpell' spell checker spare some advice,
please?

I have downloaded the AlphaSpell archive from the GB Aminet site. I have
unpacked it, installed it on my hard drive using the installer, and configured
my (registered) GoldEd 4.7.2 text editor for use with it. However, when I try
to use it nothing happens - apart from a little hard drive activity and an
information window whose last line reads: "AlphaSpell failed return code 20".
SnoopDos reports that it looks for, and fails to find, a file called
Alpha-key, which appears nowhere among the list of unpacked files.

I have attempted to contact AlphaSpell's www support site but it seems to have
closed. Can anybody suggest the next move, please, or is this programme of no
use to anybody now? I always register a good product, but I would like to try
it out first!
