IWC spell check (Resolved)

There should be spell check, not much more to say. I see many posts with incorrectly spelled words. Think it would make AF even better than it is, especially for people like me who type fast but not that well.

DO NOT REPLY TO THIS POST WITH YOUR SUGGESTIONS ON HOW THE PROPOSED CHANGE CAN BE MADE BETTER. START YOUR OWN IWC THREAD IF YOU HAVE AN IDEA ON HOW TO FURTHER IMPROVE AF AFTER THIS CHANGE PASSES OR FAILS.

Re: IWC spell check

He was asking HOW the current suggestion would work, not how to change it.

He's not trying to make it better or improve it.

I too am wondering, would it be a button you click for spell check, or would it automatically change the word to the closest comparable word?

Re: Re: IWC spell check

I see that, wasn't paying attention
Sorry Snowman

I don't think it would matter how it works. Word like would be nice, fixes basic words correctly, underlines incorrect words, & a full spell check option.

Re: IWC spell check

I've seen it on one or two other sites. I think the biggest issue is having to create the code without infringing on copywrite, but that's my
