Grammar checker for latex

Love latex but miss word's grammar checking facility?
There is one (albeit simple) option - Queequeg, A Tiny English Grammar Checker (http://queequeg.sourceforge.net/index-e.html)

Follow the installation instructions given in their website.

In their steps they say "make dict WORDNET=/src/wordnet/dict".
For whatever reason this does not work if you want another directory. Just open the Makefile and set the directory you want WORDNET to point.

The environnement is not WORDNET but WORDNETDICT. It works fine with this command.

"make dict WORDNETDICT=/src/wordnet/dict"

/src/wordnet/dict determines where is Wordnet package.
