MTspeller
=========
Python program to help you practice spelling in English
This command line tool helps its users practice American
English spelling in an interactive way.
What is MTspeller?
------------------
MTspeller is an interactive console that let you type anything in your mind and once
you hit enter it pronounce the sentence you wrote and highlight any spelling mistakes
you made. You can, of course, try again as many times as you want and you can even
make it suggest to you the correct spelling. It ships, also, with a dictionary to define
words and gives synonyms and antonyms for the word; if exist. It needs Internet
connection to work properly.
How to install it?
------------------
You have to have the following Python packages installed in order to run this software
(This was tested on the versions provided and Python 3.5.1 installed on Windows 10)

Speech==0.5.2
PyWin32 (For the corresponding version of python you have)
pip::
pip install PyEnchant==1.6.6
pip install PyDictionary==1.5.2
pip install Speech==0.5.2
There was some little modefications made to the following files in order to work properly
Nothing will be missed up and you can always backup the files just in case:
File: %PythonLocation%\Lib\site-packages\PyDictionary\Utils.py

File: %PythonLocation%\Lib\site-packages\speech.py
Line #59 changed from

Line #157 changed from

You have the following options to pick from:
