TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
-> Is there a British equivalent of the Chicago Manual of Style?
Try "Hart's Rules", published by Oxford University Press. Its long
title is something like "Hart's Rules for Compositors, Readers and some
other thing I don't remember".
-> I am also looking for a shareware/commercial British spell checker.
Most commercial word processors have alternate dictionaries available.
I'm sure British English is among them.
