Spelling checkers are rare on the Atari so this one is
most welcome. Add the fact that it's extremely fast and you get a fully
fledged word processor on the disk and the news is doubly good. The
spelling checker works on any standard text file and allows you to build
your own dictionaries, including specialist ones for specific needs.
Only very basic 'starter' dictionaries are provided so you have to build
your own dictionary. This can be done by proofing a document and adding
words one by one or, if you have a document which you know is spelt
correctly throughout you can add the entire file to the dictionary. You
won't believe how fast it is! Hundreds of words can be added at
lightning speed so you will have a comprehensive dictionary in next to
no time. Proofing documents is just as fast and the program is so easy
to use. Included on the disk is ANTIC WRITER, a fully fledged word
processor that will give you almost every command you need and there is
an extensive two part manual on the disk which fully explains every
feature. There are far too many features to detail here but you can rest
assured that this completely machine code written program is of top
quality and will provide ease of use for the novice and power for the
professional user.
