Title: hal dictionary that corrects mispelled words
Post by: lightspeed on June 02, 2007, 02:17:26 pm: i think for us less smart in the art of spelling correctly a nice plug in (if it can be made ) would be something like microsofts dictionary in ms word that when ever you mis spell something it would correct it before the question or answer is enetered after typing it out . if a plug in can't be made for this then maybe others can tell me and i can suggest robert to make it in the next hal version . as not everyone can spell good , i am one of them .

Jerry's two plugins also work together to correct many mistypings.

now and it catches me all the time. Thanks again bill.[:D][:D]

Never had that error before or any from bill's plugin check your other plugins by turning them off one by one see if that helps
and you need msword also.[:D]

Apparently not. You need MicroSoft Office to have real MSWord.
