I'm lead programmer on Conglomerate (a user-friendly XML editor) and a
long-term lurker on this list - plus I met a bunch of you guys at GUADEC
in Dublin (Hi Alan and Martin!)
I've just downloaded Enchant from your CVS server and am playing around
with it. I hope to use it to get spell-checking working within
Conglomerate.
I'm also interested in a similar framework for doing grammar checking.
There's a long-standing bug in your Bugzilla - to wrap GNU Style and
Diction to do something similar. Their not very powerful, but at least
once the API is in place there would be a framework for someone to write
a decent grammar checking library.
