Ah it is a minor request, but I feel it holds some importance. Well if Imminst wishes to implement it, I feel it would be great.

Use: "Automatic Grammar And Spell Check" system when Typing like in microsoft word.

Then again one could just type in microsoft word and copy and paste, like I said it's just a minor thing. Still having such a system would allow one to phase out the extra steps of copying and pasting.

We have had limited success with integrating the software for even a spell checker. As a point of reference we are working on updating the software. Also under the go advanced button below the post window a text edit window opens that will also provide a preview instead of direct post if you want to use it.

I have found more success using the google tool bar spell checker and iespell browser addon programs. Interestingly enough google's spell checker works in a number of languages and detects the one you are posting in. As for grammar that is a harder call. I do revert to Word for checking grammar in English and Spanish and then return the post to here when it matters. Most of the time I return and edit minor grammar mistakes myself in preview.

Spell check is a target feature of the upgrade so let's see how it works out and I will add my voice to the grammar check option if it isn't too conflicting with the operational software. I hope that helps.

The google's tool bar is considered among those that take over your comp when you download any other program... I am never in favour of such tool bars if you get what I mean.
