Portable tinySpell

Portable tinySpell is the portable edition of tinySpell — a lightweight educational utility that notifies you whenever you misspell a word. It covers all word processing applications and integrates many customization preferences.

Portable tinySpell launches without too much fuss. It quietly stays in the tray area and scans all your typing activity for spelling mistakes. It has a sound signal that warns you each time a typo appears and sprouts a spelling bubble highlighting the bad word and providing a suggestion list. Suggestions can be directly inserted into the source text or copied to the clipboard and manually applied.

Keeping an eye on the tray icon can also indicate a misspelled word. When a mistake is identified, the icon will turn yellow and start flashing. Correcting the typo will cause the icon to revert to its white background. In case the spelling tip popup hinders specific actives, disabling the application is advised. Use the tray icon context menu to do that.

If you are looking to make this app a learning companion, you might get lucky. Taking a look at the Dictionary feature reveals a good method of self-verification. If you are not sure about a word's form, you can save each misspelled example to an integrated dictionary. You can later use the list to verify your mistakes and improve your knowledge.

Excluding programs from the app's reach is also a handy function to have. Enabling and disabling the utility each time a certain process sounds repetitive and unappealing. Use the "Applications..." option to add the executable of programs you don't want to include in the scan.

Portable tinySpell is a smart spell-checker capable of detecting writing mistakes from within any text-related environment. It could become a very valuable tool for individuals who are typing their fingers off on a daily basis.
