spell checker option for words with numbers
win xp sp2 seamonkey 2.2 email composition Is there a way to NOT ignore words with numbers in them? Way back in earlier versions (maybe it was even Netscape) there was an option check box to ignore words with numbers in them. I now want to stop on such words as they9. There no longer appears to be an obvious option to do this. The default spellcheck operation bypasses th7is sort of thing. But is there such an option available? jim ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
OSS Research Survey Help Needed -- enter drawing for a tablet computer ($500.00 gift card) for participating
Hello! We are asking you for some help from the Open Source communities. As researchers at the University of Tennessee we are interested in discovering more about learning and interactions of members of the open source forums. This research is conducted through the University of Tennessee and is in no way associated with any forum organization. To further our research we would like input from forum members. The responses are very important to us so we can better understand what tools help forum members learn and have a productive experience in participation. There are two ways you can help: 1. Take a survey about the tools you use in the forum. We are requesting approximately 15 minutes of your time to participate in our survey. Survey link: http://survey.utk.edu/mrIWeb/mrIWeb.dll?I.Project=FORUMLEARN *As a thank you, upon exiting the survey you will be given an opportunity to submit information to be entered in a drawing for a tablet computer ($500.00 Gift Card).* 2. Have a one on one interview talking about the forums, how you learn, and tools used. *As a thank you for your interview you will be sent a $25.00 gift card. * Email lh...@utk.edu for more information. You may do either or both of the above. Please be assured that your answers will be confidential. No individual’s answers will ever be identified in any report. Should you have any questions about the project or our interest in using the results, we encourage you to contact Lila Holt, at lh...@utk.edu) or Vandana Singh at vand...@utk.edu. Contact information you provide for the drawing is completely separate from your survey answers and there will be no way to identify participants in the actual survey responses. Nor will contact information be used for any other purpose. The odds of being selected will depend on the number of respondents to this survey. ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

MCBastos wrote: To draw a very simple parallel, there's very little haste and stress involved in getting on the subway to travel cross-town... because if I miss this train, there will be another a few minutes later, and you can get on it with minimum effort and little lost time. Getting on a plane, OTOH, involves quite a lot of worry and rushing around, because if I miss the plane, there might take hours to get on another one, with considerable annoyance, expenses and lost time. Well, let's explore your metaphor further -- let's say you were used to catching the 20:14, which stopped everywhere you wanted it to, didn't stop at strange, out-of-the-way, stations, was reliable, punctual and got you to the office on time. Then the 20:14 was cancelled (well, not really cancelled, but all the station staff told you that it wasn't really safe any more, even though it was exactly the same train you had been using for months), and they really thought that you should start taking the 22:00 instead. So you did what they recommended, and strange things started to happen; it no longer stopped everywhere it used to, stopped at strange, out-of-the-way stations that no-one had ever heard of, your luggage would frequently disappear without trace, you were automatically sat alongside a bunch of other folk you'd never seen before instead of having a carriage to yourself, and various other oddities occurred that forced you to wonder what exactly was so wrong with the good old 20:14. And then the 22:00 was cancelled, and replaced by the 23:00, which had its own set of quirks, and then there was the 24:00 and the 24:10 which replaced it shortly afterwards, and all the staff kept assuring you that this regular change of timetable was in everyone's interest, and they didn't mind working their @rses off so that new timetables could be published every six weeks, and so on. And then someone had a brainwave -- look, he said, just because the rail network keeps introducing new trains doesn't mean that we commuters have to follow suit; why don't we just agree amongst ourselves that /our/ timetable will change only every six months ? Sure there'll be trains that are faster than ours, painted in prettier, more psychedelic colours, with go-faster stripes and all the bells and whistles you could possibly ask for, but our trains will have one great advantage : we will have dry-run them for a minimum of three months before we let a single commuter loose on them; they'll be thoroughly way-tested by our dedicated band of better-testers (as we call them in the rail trade), we'll make sure that all the rough edges to the seats that were there when they left the factory have been removed, we'll make sure that the train stops where /our/ passengers want it to stop, and that it sails through those crazy stations that the rail network think it ought to, and so on. Now wouldn't you, Mr Bastos, think twice before willingly agree to catch a different train every six weeks, and wouldn't you perhaps prefer to catch a slightly slower train in the the sure and certain knowledge that it would be /reliable/, would manifest no unexpected behaviour, and even if it wasn't 100% bullet-proof against the latest weapons of micro-destruction (WMDs, as they are called in the trade, or Viruses and Trojan Horses, as it is rumoured they were once known), there was still a 99.999% probability that you would arrive safely, particularly because you long ago invested in some good, modern, anti-WMD protection that made sure that your train would almost never encounter those WMDs in the first place ?

Re: Towards an alternative way forward for Seamonkey
Interviewed by CNN on 08/10/2011 15:38, Philip TAYLOR (Webmaster, Ret'd) told the world: Well, let's explore your metaphor further -- let's say you were used First of all, that's not *my* metaphor. That's a *different* metaphor superficially similar because both use trains. But that's all right. Now wouldn't you, Mr Bastos, think twice before willingly agree to catch a different train every six weeks, and wouldn't you perhaps prefer to catch a slightly slower train in the the sure and certain knowledge that it would be /reliable/, would manifest no unexpected behaviour, and even if it wasn't 100% bullet-proof against the latest weapons of micro-destruction (WMDs, as they are called in the trade, or Viruses and Trojan Horses, as it is rumoured they were once known), there was still a 99.999% probability that you would arrive safely, particularly because you long ago invested in some good, modern, anti-WMD protection that made sure that your train would almost never encounter those WMDs in the first place ? I might... *if* I had found problems. I don't know what you have been doing, but I have been using the new versions as soon as they are released and I had no weird problems. I did have a few problems with the migration process in 2.1, but they were easily solved. Anyway, as I explained, the 6-month release cycle is not realistic, because the Seamonkey team would not be able to *support* SM during those 6 months. Any issue discovered that related to Gecko would *not* be fixed for up to 6 months. It wouldn't help much development-wise either (unless you were willing to sacrifice even more of the already-small Gecko support window), because the period of code stabilization couldn't begin until Firefox began theirs. But *all* the features developed during those 6 months would be crammed into the *same* debugging period. Meaning, more to do during the same time window -- easier to let a real Seamonkey bug (not a Gecko bug) slip by. Now, you as an user is perfectly free to stay with any older version. There was a guy here another day who's still using the old Mozilla Application Suite. It's your right to prefer an old, no longer supported version. But what your proposal would amount to, in the end, is forcing all other users to use unsupported versions too. I see no benefit to it -- losing Gecko support, more rushed debugging phase since there would be more to do, and -- human nature being what it is -- features being rushed into release because the author doesn't want to wait six more months for the following release. Well, I see *one* benefit. People who don't want to upgrade would not feel left behind. And finally, even in a longer release cycle there would be always a percentage of users who had problems with the latest changes. The difference being that, in the rapid-release cycle, the time this user will have to wait to see if the following version address his problem is six weeks. In the longer cycle, he will have to wait six months. -- MCBastos This message has been protected with the 2ROT13 algorithm. Unauthorized use will be prosecuted under the DMCA. -=-=- ...
