I've been searching the Cocoa documentation pages on extending and interfacing with Apple applications, hoping to find notes related to the Dictionary application. An API that finds words using a soundex-type function would be nice. That, plus a plugin method to add a UI item similar to "Dictionary" and "Thesaurus" would be ideal.

Should I assume that's not possible, or did I miss something?


You might want to explain exactly what you tried.

I used the search terms "spelling service" and immediately came up with NSSpellServer, which has a link to the Spell Checking Companion Guide.
