http://www.jarte.com/ Jarte has a nice spell checker but not a thesaurus. However, you can press control+d on a word to go to the wordweb entry for that word. Jarte detects screen readers and configures it's interface for blind users. There is a free version and a low cost paid version. I used the free one for a long time. Check it out.

Hello, I was told and found that Notepad works way better with Jaws than Word does. But I'm writing papers and whatnot in Notepad, but there is no thesaurus and I don't believe any spellchecker. Is there any way to beef up Notepad? Or are there any other text editors that have the features of word?
