Briefly, it looks like the need for the downcast
is due to the use of the same field as index as
well as the string at that index. I separated
the functionalities by defining new index fields in
struct dent and struct flagent.
A more higher-level question: is the code in spell
known to work? When I choose Spelling from the Edit
menu, it just prints out a spell check done message !!
