Hi -

Where can I read more about the SpellingPlugin thats included with the Mac VM?

I'm hoping to learn whether it uses the hunspell library and if so whether the plugin can be made to run on linux, and if so can then be incorporated as the spell checker for the lint rules as well as for Seaside components/user input.

No, it uses the (proprietary) system spell checker of OS X. The original source code for the Smalltalk size is here: ftp://ftp.smalltalkconsulting.com/experimental/MacSpelling/JMMMacSpelling.1.cs The refactoring engine code critics integration just needs a small subset and thus implements those in its own class. If similar primitives are available for other platforms, they could be easily added. On startup the refactoring engine looks for the best available system or falls back to the Smalltalk one.
