I simply think that this being a message forum and not a term paper, its no biggie. I have become better at spelling (better than i was anyways lol) via my email spell checker (ala Netscape Mail). There are certian words i tend to frequently misspell. The spell checker of course checks it. When the correct spelling pops up in my face 10,000 times -- it tends to sink in. If my full screen editor had a spell checker i'd use it. However it doesn't. I don't think "humans" need to fill forums with pointing out spelling errors. When I fisrt started using it for email, i'd always get TONS of errors pointed out to me by it. Now those errors are ALOT LESS and sometimes i even get lucky and the email passes with flying colors :-) No offense -- but -- I feel that a program I use on a constant basis will teach me better than the occassional (or annoyingly constant) "human" notification of the error. I'm sure there will be many emails in the future where i will misspell that word and others and the correct spelling will EVENTUALLY sink in :-) -- .---------------------------------------------------------------. | [TiME WaRRiOR] aka [Dave Kelso] AIM: Twar782 | +o Malkavia BBS | | www : synchsupport.net - malkaviabbs.com - xpresit.net | | www$: josephsjewelersonline.com - preferedinsurance.com | | @: time.warrior@malkaviabbs. com | \______________________________________________________________/ --- Synchronet 3.12a-Win32 NewsLink 1.76 * Malkavia - Chicago, IL - telnet://malkaviabbs.com --- Synchronet 3.12b-Win32 NewsLink 1.83 .
