Visual Studio 08 Spell Check Addin? [closed]

Answer 1

The plugin from Microsoft's Mikhail Arkhipov does HTML and Comments, I don't believe it does C# strings, though. I use the Agent Smith plugin for ReSharper for that.

Answer 2

I use this to check Comments and string spell checker. It's from component one http://www.componentone.com/SuperProducts/IntelliSpell/. It's very fast and there is a free community version.

Answer 3

Visual Assist X. Spell checks your comments and a whole lot more.

Answer 4

I was running an obsolete version on Visual Studio 08, as of April last year this is the apparent update: http://visualstudiogallery.msdn.microsoft.com/2f3d691d-8838-4d84-ad64-44a02db37e30/

Unfortunately for me, it only works on commented code and not strings.

Answer 5

Spelly has been ported to VS 2003. I don't know if it works with VS 2008 (because I'm very happy with Agent Smith for ReSharper), but source is included.

Answer 6

Well, 3 weeks later, I've stumbled across CodeSpell. [Note: this link no longer works and the product does not appear to be listed by that company).

Its $30 but has a trial period. Does everything I asked for. Check link to see features.

This blog entry, though dated, helped me out.

Edit: The original link is now invalid but this appears to be the new home of CodeSpell at SubMain. Here is acquisition announcement from them.
