   There is an excellent spell checker called MicroSPELL that works very
   well with TeX stuff. I have set up my user options from within the 
   TeXShell program to call this spell checker. 
   On the positive side:
   - the program is free

Hmm, last time I looked, MicroSpell was from Trigram Systems in Pittsburgh,
and was definitely NOT free.  It is, the best spell checker, however!
