Simple Installation Setting up the Spellex Windows SDK is easy. Your installation script has to perform only 3 easy steps: 1) Install the DLL; 2) Copy the main dictionary; 3) Create an INI item or registry key containing the path to the main dictionary.
   
Easy integration with your application The simple, straight forward Spellex API uses only basic data types: strings and integers. Our DLL performs many basic tasks, including setting spelling options and opening and closing dictionaries, so you do not have to.
   
High quality dictionaries included All Spellex SDKs come standard with Spellex's world class dictionaries. The Spellex Windows SDK contains superb dictionaries which include contractions, abbreviations, possessive forms, and capitalized proper names. Spellex lexicons have been the preferred spelling dictionary by the world's most prominent and successful companies for more than a decade.
   
Industry Dictionaries Spellex is the leading developer of industry dictionaries for the healthcare, legal, and scientific industries. With the addition of a industry dictionary, you will be able to fully integrate your existing dictionary with industry dictionaries that use unique terminology not found within the common English dictionaries. You can choose from a variety of dictionaries including terms from the medical, pharmaceutical, scientific, legal, bioscience, technical, and geographical fields.
   
User dictionaries The flexibility of the user dictionaries allow you to add your own words to any number of user dictionaries. Words can be added to or removed from user dictionaries at run time using Spellex's API. Words in these dictionaries may be offered as suggestions for misspelled words.
   
Works with other applications' user dictionaries The Spellex Windows SDK can read and write from user dictionaries created by other applications, including MS Word and MS Office, so you don’t have to sacrifice any features included in your original applications’ user dictionaries.
   
Multilingual Dictionary lexicons for major Western European languages are available, including, Brazilian (Portuguese), Danish, Dutch, Finnish, French, German, Italian, Norwegian, Portuguese, Spanish, and Swedish. Installing these lexicons will allow you to spell check in a variety of languages.
   
Amazing speed Spellex software spell checks at a speed of about 350,000 words per second, leading to fast, accurate spell checking performance.
   
Check spelling in the background, "as you type" Similar to the "as you type" spell check feature in Microsoft Office, this feature allows spelling errors to be detected in "real time" by marking misspelled words as the user types.
   
Automatic replacements The Spellex Windows SDK engine can automatically or conditionally replace one word for another -- e.g., replace recieve with receive. A dictionary containing hundreds of common English misspellings and their correct replacements is included. Abbreviations can also be expanded using this feature -- e.g., replace MS with Microsoft.
   
Intelligent suggestions for misspelled words The Spellex Windows SDK spelling engine contains the power to locate suggested spelling replacements using either a typographical (looks like) matching, phonetic (sounds like) matching, or both. These suggestions are scored by the degree of closeness with the misspelled word and the list of suggestions is returned in descending score order. The first offered suggestion is usually the correct replacement for words containing a single error.
   
Case sensitivity The case sensitivity feature in the Spellex Windows SDK detects incorrect capitalization (e.g., france instead of France) and reports it as a misspelling. However, case sensitivity can be disabled if necessary by changing a simple run-time option setting
   
Check single words or entire books Spellex Windows SDK detects lets you spell check individual words or blocks of text containing thousands of words
   
Doubled word detection Repeated word usage (e.g. Florida in the the summer) is detected through the Windows SDK, minimizing grammatical errors.
   
Check text controls or strings The Spellex Windows SDK can spell check the contents of standard text boxes and rich-text boxes, including CEdit, TEdit, CRichEdit, and TRichEdit controls. Misspelled words are highlighted, then chosen corrections are updated automatically. Spell checking can be performed in text strings containing one word or thousands of words.
 
Word parsing and simple text editing Spellex's API is flexible enough to find and extract individual words (surrounded by punctuation and white space) from blocks of text. It can also be used to perform simple text editing functions, such as word deletion and word replacement.
   
Easy integration using our built-in dialogs You can add a complete spell checker to your Windows application in as little as one statement using our built-in dialogs. Dictionaries and option settings are loaded automatically from an INI file or the system registry. You will not believe how easy adding a spell checker can be!
   
Write your own application-specific dialogs The spell check dialogs built-into the Spellex DLL can save you precious development time. However, if your application has special requirements, you can build your own dialogs by calling Spellex's basic API. You can also use Spellex without a user interface to check spelling, look up suggestions, etc.
   
Source code availability The full, ANSI C source code for the spell checking engine and related software is available. The availability of the source code allows you to personalize the spell checker to better suit your application. This feature makes the Spellex Windows SDK work to your full advantage.
   
Example applications included The source code that demonstrates how typical applications add a spell checker using the Spellex Windows SDK is included in C, MFC, Visual Basic, VB.NET, C#, and Delphi. Access to this source code will enable developers to easily modify our interface or use our own examples to integrate our spelling engine into their application.
   
Low resource consumption       Spellex typically uses a maximum of 450K of memory and 400K of disk space at run time. However, memory use can be altered to reduce consumption to as low as 100K (with some loss of speed).
   
Works with most development environments       The Spellex Windows SDK fully supports C/C++, Delphi, Visual Basic, VB.NET, C#, and ASP environments. Spellex can be used from other DLL-capable development environments as well, however some additional coding may be required.
   
Multi-platform support       The Spellex Windows SDK is compatible with all 32-bit versions of Windows, including Windows 95, 98, ME, NT, 2000, and XP.
   
Use our built-in dialogs or write your own       Save development time by using the spell check dialogs built-in to the spellex Windows SDK. If your application has special requirements, you can create your own user interface by calling Sentry's basic API. You can also use Sentry without a user interface to check spelling, look up suggestions, etc.
