I recommend Notetab Pro, which includes a spell checker and thesaurus. They might also be available in the standard version, but other features are not, and for $20, it seems like excellent value. I think you can use it in a 30 day trial mode to make sure it works for you. The spell checking and thesaurus files, by the way, are a separate, free download from the web site (both to save distribution size and to allow for various language choices).

I am becoming very interested in it. I would use it for everything I currently do in notepad, which is a tiny bit of editing, some examination of brl files and HTML writing. What version does a person need to get to have the editing features discussed? I really need any program I use to have a spell check, because I'm a lousy speller. Every time I write something for a web page I have to copy the page I opened in explorer, spell check it and remember the problems so I can switch to notepad with the html in it and fix my mess in there. :-) I'm really a fan of advanced searching, too.
