SpellCheck

A .Net console application that allows the user to spell-check text files. It provides the option to modify the dictionary used in spell-check and add case-sensitive words, for example acronyms.

Usage

SpellCheck.exe <path-to-compare> [path-to-dictionary]
	<path-to-compare>     path to file to spell check
	[path-to-dictionary]  path to file to use as dictionary
	--make                optional parameter to create dictionary file

Special cases

Worth noting, there are special cases where spell checking is not executed.

Spell checking is bypassed if:

  • the word starts with a backslash
  • the word is encased in < and >, for example <div> in html files
  • the word is not alphanumeric
  • the word is strictly numeric
