I'm about to write a spell checker as part of a content-management system for a website. I looked at the Text::Ispell and Text::Pspell, and I like the looks of the former a bit more - I find the interface a bit more intuitive, and it seems to do useful things that the latter doesn't, such as parsing a whole text string rather than just spell checking a single word.
But before I start I'd be very grateful for any observations from sibling monks, particularly
- is there some other module that I haven't unearthed which would be worth looking at?
- should I worry that the last revision of Text::Ispell was almost three years ago?
- any other words of wisdom before I launch myself into the void (warning: useless use of perl hacker in void context)

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
