Perhaps it's the exceptionally high standards that TB! sets in all other respects that highlights this very minor point for me. TB On my P233 it seemed to take an age, now I have a P550 it seems almost TB instantaneous. You don't say what PC you have so that may have something TB to do with it as well. Hhmmm... yes an oversight. I have now added the info to my reply template. Cc I have the British English version installed. Timed the checker this Cc morning (it's initial opening), it took 35 seconds. TB I just typed out a new, reasonably long message with auto check off. TB Clicked on "Check entire text" and it was booted up an on the first TB wrong word faster than I could blink, well within a second. There you go, nowt so unpredictable as computers I say. -- ceejay www.turnet.co.uk Wales (UK) TB! ver:1.49 / Platform:Windows 98 ver:4 1998 / Spec:Pll 350Mhz 128MB ram -- -- View the TBUDL archive at http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com To send a message to the list moderation team double click here: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe from TBUDL, double click here and send the message: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] -- You are subscribed as : archive@jab.org

slow spell check
Composed on 06/01/2001, at 23:58 GMT Is it just me, or has anyone else noticed that the wait after initial selection of spell checking is becoming longer with each new version. I can almost brew up while v1.49 chugs along in it's attempt to bring the spell checker to life! Another small point, this concerns the red underlining of unrecognised words while editing. Even after selecting 'ignore all' the checker merrily continues to underline the word when encountered later on in the same message. TB! appears to have a mind of its own when it comes to determining which words it wants to ignore.
