Hi,
        It seems that most of You think that You do not make mistakes in English language. I quite believe it for the natives, but I cannot believe it for most of the others. Try to take javadoc of any of the JDK's and You'll find missing spaces between words, misspelling and many other errors a spell checker may find.

I agree that such a feature is not on the priority list, but is still a valid and useful one.

And after all, just read the mails in EAP. Professional developer does not equal English language guru.


I am for the feature, but as the last one made for IDEA.
For the language selection - I think that English should be sufficient, because most of the documentation is done in it, even in non-English speaking parts of the World (I have seen this in Czech, Finnish, Swedish and Russian code...).

With regards,
        Tom� Langer



P.S. The feature should have a special switch that would show on the first startup of IDEA, asking a simple question: "Is Your English faultless?"
