Hello Chris,
On Wednesday, May 31, 2000 at 20:14:36 GMT +0100 (which was 12:14 PM
where I live) [EMAIL PROTECTED] typed:
Can I alter the English language spell checker to automatically
coorect lower case i to upper case I ? It is a bad habit I have not
pressing the shift key hard enough to always capitalize the letter i,
and an auto correct of the single letter would be neat.
Un/fortunately no. TB's editor has an option for autocorrect, but
what that does is underline the misspelt word with a square wave
instead of the triangular wave. Then you can just double right click
on the word to fix it.
So it doesn't do what you suggested exactly, but it is kind of
convenient. For example, I have some common contractions in my
autocorrect list. Usually, I like to expand 'btw' into 'by the way'
but not always (like right now). So I don't have to fight with the
editor to get things to be the way I intend. This is a mixed
blessing, so it's hard to have strong feelings on this one.
I see both sides of your argument, but the option to auto correct with
no assistance would be nice, in some situations. Thanks for explaining
it.
