Is there anywhere I can find a text file with a list of all the words in the english dictionary? I'm adding a spell checker to my java app, but the dictionary file that I found lacks a lot of words.

Something like /usr/share/dict/words has a list on Linux and Mac machines that you could copy. Otherwise, use google! There are a bunch out there, but it's hard to know which dictionary list will have all the words you want and none of the ones you don't want.
