I don't think this works on XP, as I've just tried to install it and it
notifies me of an non valid drive it's trying to install into
(C:\Program Files\notespad)!

I need a plain text program that features spell checking.

I favor Notepad2 and a small script that sends any text you like to the
MS Word spellchecker. This is my strategy for writing w/o the
distractions of Word.

use "tinySpell" , to check my spelling where ever I type (including
this typing) ===
