Hey Bruce,

defaults write com.barebones.bbedit Editor_SpellCheckLengthLimit -int NN

The documentation in the expert prefs help indicates this setting only applies 
to the "Find All Misspelled Words" command.

If I understand you correctly this is actually not so.

Autocomplete is affected and other aspects of the spell-checker.

If that is indeed the case then the documentation should be changed to reflect 
this more overarching effect.  In my opinion.

Examining the expert prefs a little further it appears that completion is 
affected by a different setting:
Text completions that depend on examining the document's contents (both for 
tokens in the document, and for possible completions from the system spelling 
checker) are now skipped when the document is above a certain size. The cutoff 
can be adjusted:

defaults write com.barebones.bbedit MaxDocumentLengthForCompletionTokenizer 
-int NN

where "NN" is some decimal value. Use -int 0 to suppress the limit altogether.

Can you elaborate?
