Hi All,

In case you do not know Mac OSX is a Unix System with a fancy GUI.

True, the Mac does not come bloated with many Unix tools, yet they can
be installed easily via MacPorts or Fink.  

Similarly true, is that you need some intimate knowledge using these tools
and the command line, but this is true of any Linux distribution.

In the end using command line tools on the Mac is no harder than on Linux.

Windows is slightly different as it has no underlying Unix layer, yet it is possible
to get these tools running under Windows or a VM.

regards
Keith.

Bowerbird,

I am a Linux guy.  enchant was installed already, as was aspell.  For the Mac you might try Macports:

Some things are much harder on a Mac or Windows than they are on Linux and I think this is going to be an example of that.  Fancy text processing using command line tools is one of the areas where Linux excels.
