Re: Spell checker optimization

You mentioned at the beginning about the ACTUAL comparison routine, to pick
the best word.
I wrote a QBASIC fuzzy search routine a while ago which would do just the job.
It is already pretty well optimised for typical mis-spellings (letters in
wrong order like hlelo or missed out letters) and a little extra code to check
for keyboard typos (s = a or d, k = j or l)
I'll convert it using David Cuny's ebasic, and then tidy up if you think it
might be useful. I never bothered to turn it into a spell checker because QB
was SO SLOW - I mean I even had to write my own sort rountine...
