This is the most comprehensive grammar and style correction tool that I have used, regardless of operating system. The advice it offers is highly customizable to match a variety of writing styles. Grammarian also offers readability statistics for those interested in such things. (The program tells me that this section is written at about the ninth-grade reading level.)

Grammarian can either "look over your shoulder" and point out errors as you commit them or be brought to bear during a final edit-and-polish stage of your writing project.

The figure reveals that I have a "squinting" modifier (occasionally) in the next paragraph.

Why I like it: Grammarian can find more errors in someone's writing than the toughest high school English teacherwhich means it can keep even a careful writer from occasionally looking stupid. (So it does a lot for mewhen I remember to use it.)
