You are invited to check out
http://sourceforge.net/projects/descdatadiary It makes use of
aspell for its spell checking and it makes use of my windows port
of aspell 0.60.3. It is only alpha version, but I'm interested in
feedback and so on.

I only have VC6. I do not know for a fact how compatible the CVS
version of  Aspell is with higher version of VC. VC2003 might
compile aspell code with ease, I don't know.

If you or anyone on the list has CVS up and running on I'm
interested in whether you are getting a successful build.
best regards,
Gary
