Not enough information. What word(s)? Correctly spelled or not? Does same
word get flagged in other text positions? Is an alternative spelling offered
when word *is* flagged? Where on the screen is the word located - top,
center,bottom, e.g. always line three? What do you have assigned to Alt-I?
How many lines on your screen? Does the thesaurus function work with the same
word? If you move the screen around so that the word is in a different
position, e.g. on line 9 instead of line 22, does it work? If you repeat
procedure, is it ignored again? More more more. See if you can identify some
common element in the problem.
