"our generation knows how to spell"

QFT! You'd think that English wasn't taught anymore.

But seriously, does this application really have a point in today's world? Perhaps this idea would be better served as a model for skinning today's popular word processing software.

The hardest thing two due is too proof-reed what you've just written. The hardest thing four a spell-checker two dew is too no that the word you're typing is being used inn its correct context.

And yes I know I'm using several words incorrectly in the prior paragraph. But a spell checker would have allowed them because they're spelled correctly.

eldryn,

Use Firefox. Spell-checking is built in.

Thank you eldryn. I have to agree, as a student I write long papers often and I can't say I mind the build in typo and spell check. Allowing my computer to correct me in these things is not an insult to my intelligence. I think it's handy.

This really isn't that much different than Word in Web layout, black background, green text, and set to Courier New...It just saves the documents to the internet.
