I'm looking to implement a plugin spell checker.
I'm probably going to go with PyEnchant, as it looks to be the most promising currently maintained spell checker.
I just wondered if anyone knew what happened to snakespell and myspell. Both seem to have dissapeared from the net. People have reported good results from both - and it seems a shame to lose them.
Well, myspell-python is no longer maintained, original author resigned some time ago and I didn't found anybody who would like to take responsibility on this package. I provide myspell-1.0 download from my project page at BerliOS (http://developer.berlios.de/projects/jpa/), but I do not maintain this package.
If you look for spell-checking library, I'd consider using python binding for aspell, available at http://www.republika.pl/wmula/proj/aspell-python/ (currently I'm rewriting my program to use python-aspell). This library is actively maintained and Wojtek Mula is active member of Polish Python community.
