" Oh, nothing big, but lots and lots lof little things. ...

And I wish that Smartwords would recognize
languages other than American English and
do the above, 'knowing' that German is
spelled differently from English and correct
German spelling.
There was hope that the Describe wordprocessing
program with a dozen languages and a manual
written by the Saint Herb Tyson of "Xywrite
revealed in all its glory" fame, would be
that kind of program, but it only allows the
designation of frames with languages and
does little else.
If the file viewers can guess at the type of
file coming in from the first 250 characters or
so, can't it look for languages too?
