Spell checking is not word processing. Word isn't smart enough to know what
is a comment and what is code.
Programming is not documenting, yet JavaDoc exists and Idea does quite a lot
of nice things with JavaDoc.
Code version management is not programming, yet Idea integrates with CVS.
Help is not programming but Idea... oh wait, never mind on that one. :)
The list could go on.

Subject: Re: [Eap-list] Spell checking comments and strings
NO! Use MS Word if you want a spellchecker. As an added bonus, it'll also
check
your grammer, and draw cute little squiggly lines all over the place.
Programming!=word processing. You'd think it's a fairly intuitive fact, but
alas, that certainly doesn't seem the case judging by the number of spell
checking requests. On the other hand, they could all be made in a sarcastic
tone, which is too subtle for me.
