	I've used that for some time to
	remind me to check "its" for antecedents.
	It only beeps, but that is often enough
	to remind to check the reference.

	In Autocorrect, you could load just the
	PERS.spl or whatever you are calling
	it to run against the text, and in the
	limited PERS.spl, have only the vocabulary
	you want.
	So you have a PERS.SPL with
	labor labour and
	color colour in it
	and then when you type labor it does
	the autoreplace.

	Myself, for projects, I'll run the default
	spellchecker against a typical text and use
	the resultant exception file as part of the
	PROJ1.spl for correcting or auto-correcting
	that document.

	unwantedword gobbledegook
	is another option to flag "bad" words.

	Some titles are entered as abbreviations
	and then automatically substituted in bold
	by putting the guillemets around the
	expanding title with the format and full title.
