   Is there a spelling checker (commercial and/or PD) that can work with
   LaTeX and understand Italian words?

   I have ftp access.

   Thanks

I will be releasing version 1.2 of my program Excalibur in a week or
two.  Excalibur is a LaTeX spelling checker for the Macintosh.  It is
free.

This new version will let you convert any dictionary into Excalibur's
special format.  Excalibur 1.2 recognizes words that have TeX style
accents and it also recognizes Apple's extended character set.  This
should be a big help to non-English speaking users.

I'll announce when the program is ready on this forum.
