IntelliSpell - Spell Checker

Hi,

 

This is about introducing an integrated spell checker tool for .Net IDE.

 

Microsoft Visual Studio is the most powerful and popular software development environment. However, it lacks spell-checking capabilities that exist in popular authoring packages.

Realizing developers’ needs, ComponentOne presents ComponentOne IntelliSpell™. The spell-checking add-in enables you to spell-check code, comments, strings, HTML, XML, resources, and general text in both Visual Studio 2008 and Visual Studio 2005. With IntelliSpell, you have the power to deliver products free of spelling errors.  Get started today with IntelliSpell Community Edition, and spell-check your files in Visual Studio at no cost.

 

ComponentOne IntelliSpell comes in two editions:

 

-          The Community Edition is a free version that allows you to check one file at a time. You can use it for as long as you like, and share it with your friends and co-workers.

-          The Professional Edition can check entire projects and solutions, including localize applications.

 

 

Here is the feature set.
