I am looking for a standalone electronic grammar-checker for Windows. I
know Word has a grammar-checker but I would need a good standalone product.
I am new to the list but I did my homework and searched the archive. I only
found Mac software.
I would define good as:
- catch many errors
- limit false alerts
- ease of use
- import/export many file format
- has an option to turn off unwanted rules
On the archive, I found a reference to a Mac product Grammarian 2. I
visited the web site of the vendor and they have no Windows version. I also
found a reference to Grammatik, again for Mac, but I could not find the
vendor's web so I don't know if they have a Windows version.
Thanks for any help
