ok. i'll go ahead and ask the next most common question... the spellchecker.

sooo blah blah aspell pspell ispell gnome-spell blah blah

all installed.

get the spellcheck option, checked in gnomecc, but it does not detect
mis-spelled words.

i seem to see a mention of this being a gtkhtml bug, but fixes are not
loafing about anywhere.

any suggestions welcome...

oh and the ferret is free and happy.

spell checker can;t possible his fault.

"I gave a speech once," he said suddenly, and apparently unconnectedly.
"You may not instantly see why I bring the subject up, but that is because
my mind works so phenomenally fast, and I am at a rough estimate thirty
billion times more intelligent than you. Let me give you an example.
Think of a number, any number."
"Er, five," said the mattress.
"Wrong," said Marvin. "You see?"
