Greetings again,

No doubt this has been asked before, but I probably missed it.

I find it annoying that each time that I open the spell checker under the 
“Edit” menu, I have to first set it to U.S. English, because by default it is 
set to British English. Mind you, I have absolutely nothing against British 
English. In fact, I have read the KJV Bible for 46 years of my life, and I love 
women with a British accent. :)

But I am an American who reads and writes American English.

I found no way in BBEdit’s prefs to set the default for this option.

Furthermore, even though I set U.S. English as my primary language in the 
"Language & Region" prefs pane in System Preferences -- and rebooted my 
computer as was required of me -- and set Apple's built-in dictionary to the 
Oxford U.S. English dictionary as my default dictionary, it has had no bearing 
on BBEdit's behavior. It STILL defaults to British English -- even though the 
spell checker's menu on the bottom says "Automatic by Language” -- and it STILL 
insists that I use British spelling.

Why is BBEdit behaving like such a renegade? That is only supposed to be for us 
snarky humans, I do believe. :)

Is there one of those "super secret" BBEdit Terminal commands which will force 
BBEdit to follow MY command, instead of its own?

I am wondering if this has anything to do with my location and IP address. Is 
that possibly used by BBEdit to determine which way the language wind blows 
here? :)

Thanks in advance.

Kind regards,

Bill
