But we can all just await the day when the System ships with built in
Dictionary support.  Think it was rumoured to be in 7.1.  Means that if you
have a number of programs all of which provide Spell Checking (Word
Processor, Spreadsheet, Desktop Publisher) you don't have to have 3 huge
dictionaries.  I haven't actually tried, but I think you can use the same
Dictionary for Claris Apps already.
