I will post a uuencoded binary of my SPELL program as soon as I get 'phone service (should be Monday, September 29). About the dictionary for SPELL: in the user's guide I mentioned that a dictionary file (really a list of words) is built by the program itself. The program starts out knowing no words, and asks about each word in the file being corrected. After the program has been used for some time, most of the words that you use will be known to the program, and it will only ask about new words and misspelled words. There is no problem with starting out with a big dictionary file. Just name it words.txt and place it on the same disk with spell.prg. This file should be an ordinary text file with one word per line. I don't know where you would get such a file... Hope this helps. I'll post the binary file as soon as possible. Eric Bergman-Terrell
