Get the file TeXutilities off of sonata.  It was put there by Harald 
Schlangmann to go with TeXmenu (itself a great little application for
people who do their TeXing in Edit) to allow for one button spell
checking. It contains a working copy of detex for the NeXT.  Not sure
about "delatex" as I've not used it.

Hope this is helpful.
