I'd like to see the speller configured so you can totally
blow away the case sensitive features as a setup option. It's
far more trouble than it's worth. Click on ignore all, then you
have to tell it whether to ignore caps or all letters, ugh!
Ugh!! UGHHH!!!!
Just make it go away. Geez, the danged thing will stop on MacArthur and
McKinley every bleeping time. There is no way to fix it,
apparently.
And while we're on the subject. Can't that "double word
encountered" feature be configured so that if a punctuation mark
appears between the words the double word message doesn't kick
in?
