I was so excited to learn there is a spell checker that could be used in
MicroWorlds on Mac OS 9. But alas, this is what I found:
SpellTools 1.3.3 - FREE DOWNLOAD
Category: C: \ Word Processing
Newer Technology is bankrupt. This file is no longer available for
download.

So I searched around and found some other spell checkers. Does anyone
have experience with any of these?
Spell Catcher 8.1.3
Spellswell Plus  2.1.6
Master Spell 5.0.3

I also read that Mac OS X has a built in spell checker.
