DISCUSSION

The Apple Speller III program provides quick, reliable spelling verification
and vocabulary analysis of documents produced by any word processing software
compatible with the Apple III system (except CP/M or emulation-mode
software), including Apple Writer III and the Pascal III Text Editor.  It
verifies the spelling of every word in your document with an up-to-date
Random House dictionary containing more than 78,000 words.  Auxiliary
dictionaries contain an additional 3400 words categorized as geography,
names, abbreviations and figures.  There are a variety of ways to customize
these dictionaries to simplify your dictionary maintenance.  You may add
your own words to a new or existing dictionary, add or subtract one
dictionary from another, or delete a dictionary you no longer need.

Apple Speller can be used with a 128K Apple III single disk drive system,
but two drives are recommended to minimize diskette-swapping.  The program's
speed and performance is further enhanced on a 256K system or by using a
ProFile. The Apple Speller manual doubles as a tutorial and is informative
and useful.
