Build a simple, easy-to-use desktop Spell Checker application (.exe) for Windows. I start with two files: 1. A SOURCE file to spell check and 2. A WORD LIST that serves as a reference for spelling. The Spell Checker Application will check the spelling of the words in the SOURCE, against the reference WORD LIST. Output: an updated WORD LIST and a corrected version of the SOURCE. 1. Purpose I want an application that: - Lets me open a SOURCE text into the application, check if all “word spelling” match an entry in the WORD LIST. - Highlights words in the SOURCE that are not in the WORD LIST. - Allows me to click buttons to: add new words directly to the WORD LIST or edit the SOURCE. - Keeps the same look and formatting of the SOURCE text (colors, bold, font size, etc.) - Reads and preserve special UTF-8 encoding characters like (à, é, è, ò, ô, Ò, È) 2. Main Features A. WORD LIST (Reference words) - The application should come with a built-in place to store my reference WORD LIST. - I should be able to add words, delete words , or edit into the reference WORD LIST without needing any technical steps. - The updated WORD LIST should be saved automatically and be easy to back up. B. Spell Checking - I can open, paste or type text into the application’s main box. - When a word from the SOURCE file is not in my reference WORD LIST, it is flagged in a bright color (e.g., red or a different format) and the application will offer the following options: -replace the flagged word with a closed matched word from the WORD LIST -add the flagged word to the WORD LIST -Ignore and continue -Edit the SOURCE manually C. Formatting - Preserve the format in the SOURCE, (e.g., bold, italic). - WYSIWYG editor (Rich text) so user can format content: Bold, italic, underline, colors, and font sizes. D. UI/UX friendly - Large, clear buttons with labels like Check Spelling, Replace, Add, Edit, Ignore, Save. 3. Technical Details - Platform: Windows desktop, one .exe file I can double-click to open. - No installation complexity: Should work right after download or with a simple setup. - Offline: Should work without internet. - File Storage: The result of the spelling is saved in a simple format (.txt, .csv, .docx). - No clutter: Everything essential is on one screen 4. What I Need from You - A working application that matches the description. - A quick start guide showing how to use it. - Source files in case I want updates in the future.
