mistakes. Most browsers have a 'spell-checker', which will quickly
identify and correct spelling errors. Maybe some people are not even
aware that they are making all these errors, but they can find out real

Well, eye used spell check on this and I think its fare to say awl
is well. Bare in mind, eye think know spell checker corrects every
mistake. Many words have duel spellings and or meanings and some
times its hard to illicit what won is trying to say. Relying on
spell checker could bee you're wurst vise. Sleigh the temptation of
laziness. Spell checker may seam a good thing, butt sum day it mite
make a fool of ewe.

Hi Mac,
Actually, that bothers me too. When I compose the messages in
Netscape
7.1, they are all lined up. When they appear on the forum, they get
chopped up. If anyone knows how I can correct this, I'm all ears.

If you care so much, might I suggest that you have a care about where your
lines break? I would rather read a dozen mis-spellings than read one post
with lines broken the way yours are, above.

Thanks. Just trying to promote a better experience for everyone.

Find the setting (assuming there is one) for Characters per line

Change it to 60 and you should be fine.

I am not aware of any browsers that have a spell check feature and I expect
yours doesn't either.
This feature requires a word processor program of some sort in order for the
spell check option to become an active selection of a news reader.

Forte Agent has a spell checker built in.

Of course, I ususally forget to use it....

It checks both mail & usenet -- and the new version of Agent has a
vastly improved spellchecker. Not worth the $15 for an upgrade
yet, but I might just do it because I'll be upgrading to 2.1 when
nested folders are available.
