Spell Check The spelling checker is based on the Unix "spell" command, which this program ran on your message composition before opening this window. In the main status window you will see an indication of the number of unrecognized words. This window will keep stepping through the word list provided by the spell command until that word list is exhausted. You may select Cancel to discard the rest of the list and close the window. Next Word will move to the next word and discard the current one. If you come across a word that needs replacing, the first occurrence of that word will be found in the text and highlighted. If you wish to change it, type the new text into the Correction box, and select Replace. For your convenience, a carriage return in the correction box will replace the current highlighted word. If you do not wish to change the current word, select the Search button, and you will be presented with the next occurrence of that word. If there are no more occurrences, it moves on to the next word from the list of possible corrections. Once you have typed in a correction, you may continue using the Replace button to replace any other occurrences, it will also automatically step to the next occurrence, and will move to the next word when all the occurrences of the current word have been exhausted. If you have a word that you use commonly, but is not in the system dictionary, you may select Ignore from the menu bar to add it to a personal stop list. Words in this list will not be presented to you when you run the spell checker in the future. When the word list is exhausted, there may be a brief delay while the contents of your stop list are hashed into a form the spell checker will use on the next invocation. The spell checker is case sensitive, so you may be presented with duplicates for things like Unix, unix, and UNIX.
