Spell check!

Has always been one of the best things since sliced bread and I am thrilled that there is one built into the boards. I am wondering though if there is any way to get some words added. Words like shader and specularity for example. They come up around here all the time and it doesn't like them very much.

    I just use the built-in Firefox checker. (Yes, I really do have a spell checker.)

    Firefox does it for me automagically. No matter what site I'm on, I get red squigglies, which is quite frequent seeing as I use non-existing words a lot. lol

    I have a learning disability so I use the one in IE and befor that used and add on spell checker. But it is pretty clear not everyone knows that those are available.

    On focusing I see that it is part of my google tool bar. However! I also have used ISpell for years with IE and really like it.

    I think IE will share the Office spell-checker if you have it installed, unless it was taken out on competition grounds. I don't have Office to check.

    What is a spell checker? I thought only Harry Potter had any of those things.

    Besides, all the errors I make, is not sloppiness - just a case of fingers being slower than the mind.

    I don't do spells, so I don't need a spellchecker. :coolhmm:
