Hi all,
Just a random comment on this subject. There are a lot of 'dict' servers
(eg: the MIT dict server) out there on the net whose protocol (RFC 2229) also
allows one to do a spell check (MATCH command) . On my linux box I have a
client application called 'gdict' that uses the MIT dict server to do
word/spell lookups.
Also little googling showed me this:

serpento (for the lack of better name) is a dict (RFC 2229) server
written in python.

This is a new library for interacting with Dict servers.
* It defines three classes -- Connection, Database, and Definition.
* It supports all common Dict server requests, including definitions,
* matching, and getting information about available databases,
* capabilities, etc. You can use it to communicate to a local
* or remote dictd database.
