ABSTRACT:
A personal computerized dictionary to which not only positive but also negative versions of words can be added by the user to customize the spelling check module to a specific application. In a preferred embodiment, such a dictionary is incorporated in a spelling check module for use in conjunction with an electronic typewriter or personal computer of the type which has a keyboard and a data processor interconnected by a respective keyboard connector and a data processor connector. The spelling check module includes male and female connectors which are arranged to receive the keyboard connector and data processor connectors. The spelling check module is installed by disconnecting the keyboard connector from the data processor connector and interposing the spelling check module therebetween by connecting the keyboard connector and the data processor connector to the respective connectors of the spelling check module. The spelling check module is controlled by selected non-printing, non-control keys.
