Be glad to do it, and sending you a mail, but why can't you just use the spell checker in word or some other word processor?
If it's just spelling, I'd suggest you just have it done automatically through Word, or whatever word processor you choose - if you're looking for an editor, however, that's a different story. What do you need spellchecked and/or potentially edited?

Babar has kindly offered to help me out .
Someone may find the following prgrams handy. Metapad is a great little text editor that works with both unix and dos text files. Aspell is a handy spell checker for plain text files. Dictionary files are available in several languages. Metapad and Aspell can be used together or Aspell vcan be used alone. Anyway both are free. Anyone interested can find them at the addresses below.

'then' is used for time, 'than' is used for comparisons like 'bigger than' etc.

(For instance, in using "proper" English, never start a sentence with the word 'and'. I just did a bad-bad thing.)

ABRACADABRA YOUR SPELLS ARE OKAY
DG never jokes half-heartedly....
It's not just a pun, it's a pun with an animated illustration of a magician....
It works on so many levels!!! Watch as my bowtie spins around and around!!!
EDIT: In fact, I'm gonna edit my sig and quote myself is how good it was!!
"The best spell checker is the one in your head."
... or was that about calculators?
Anyways, to make up for my lack of animation... :=
Sorry I didn't post this as a joke .
