Use the Spell CPL to check words in the database against a known spelling list.

This CPL requires that the Mark.cpl file be in the same location as the Spell.cpl file, as well as the words.list file. By default, the Spell CPL only checks for English words. |
The Spell CPL works with the following versions of Concordance:
•8.x
•9.5x
•10
|
Use only version 10 of this CPL. Due to comment lines, previous versions give Syntax Errors. |
