Re: How to Force BBEdit Spell Checker to Default to U.S. English?

[Bill Kochman]

Hello Rod,

Thank you so much! Finally, it works! I had to set it to U.S. English.

So what I have learned from this, is that the preferred language setting in 
“Language & Region” only sets the language for menus, dialogs, etc.

For actual spelling language — as in for a text editor -- I need to go to 
Keyboard/Text.

Again, thank you.

Bill Kochman

Go to 

System Preferences -> Keyboard -> Text

and check the "Spelling:" dropdown.  Mine says "Automatic by Language" and 
BBEdit behaves as it should.

I am in the US.

Hello Chris,

I have two questions for you then:

Are you located in the continental U.S.A.?

If so, do you have “Location Services” enabled in Security & Privacy/Privacy”?

For me, both answers are negative, so I am wondering if that may have something 
to do with the fact that BBEdit is being such a stinker.

I am sure that Rich or Patrick has probably already read this, and are aware of 
my inquiry. Well, I would think so, at least. :)

Bill

Hey Bill,

I just checked my spelling window.  It is well behaved and bringing up the U.S. 
English dictionary as default.

I'd suggest you escalate this problem to Bare Bones support.
