For most serious writings I am still with LaTeX-''Textures'' form
Bluesky Research and for spell checking I have always used Excalibur
4.0.2, the spell checker for TeX/LaTeX. I have grown to like spell
checking with Excalibur to the extent that whenever I need to check
spelling in all kind of languages I would do this with Excalibur and
the appropriate activated language directories. As I have recently
bought my own private MacBook Pro I asked Rick Zaccone, the author of
Excalibur for a MacIntel version of his wonderful piece of
KISS-software.
I got a reply from Rick very soon where he explained that he has
turned Excalibur into an open source project,because due to a health
issue, he can't continue his developments. As I am not proficient
enough in this type of programing I can't take it up but I hope that
someone will at least create a recompile for the MacIntel
architecture soon.
Here is the open source node for this project. Rick does not want
Excalibur to fade away, so please take it up!
I really hope somebody will take over for keeping Excalibur alive on the Mac.
