We are happy to announce the release of Linux version of our Bangla Spell Checker. Like the Windows version it is fully Unicode compatible and works on utf-8 and utf-16 (both big and little endian) texts. It can open large text file, or get text from clipboard and then check spelling of the Bangla texts. Since, the spell-checker is written for Unicode encoded Bangla texts, it would require Unicode supports from your operating system. This includes text input system as well as proper Bangla font. Some directions are available on the Internet. 

Download the spell checker software for free.

Please note, the Linux version of the Spellchecker is fully featured with no limit of lifetime unlike the Windows version. However, to get support you may need to buy a license. Details would be published in due time.
