I have the latest version of Leopard running on a 3.06 gHz iMac 24-inch, and I have the latest version Spell Catcher X running.

Is Spell Catcher X compatible with Snow Leopard?

Will there be a Spell Catcher X update for Snow Leopard?

Many thanks.

Spell Catcher X 10.3.2 is fine on Snow Leopard. There are a few things you need to know, I will be putting up a FAQ later tonight with the details.

The main thing is that input method components are not available to apps running in 64-bit mode. You have to select the option to run in 32-bit mode (in the Finder's Get Info window) for these apps.

There is a new kind of input method (an input method application), these work regardless of the "underlying" app's architecture*, but require a complete re-write. I'm working on this, should appear in the next maintenance update (no date set or even predictable).

* Theoretically, as there are bugs in the Mac OS related to this.
