Re: Ignoring URL's whilst Spellchecking
Hi all, The plot thickens further... When running a spell check whilst using the Plain text (windows) editor in a message with at least two items which the Spell-checker will highlight use the Ignore all button on the Spell-checker. This closes the Spell-checker. However if you do exactly the same thing on MicroEd Ignore All seems to ignore all instances of that spelling mistake. There are a number of inconsistencies that I'm coming across, the only thing is, I'm not sure which is right! -- Warmest regards, Paul Created using TheBat! 3.72.04 (Beta) on Windows XP Current version is 3.71.03 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

Okay I've tried it and it skips the URL's in the email when I use MicroEd. It looks like it is a bug or a difference in functionality. The other thing that I notice is that when I spell check in MicroEd I receive a nice little message at the end saying how many words it checked etc. However this dialog box does not appear when I finish a spell-check in PlainEd. Well that is one thing fixed, but the plot has thickened somewhat! -- Warmest regards, Paul Created using TheBat! 3.72.04 (Beta) on Windows XP Current version is 3.71.03 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
Ignoring URL's whilst Spellchecking
Hi all, I send quite a few emails each day which have the URL's for websites in the body of the email. I'm in the habit of running a spell check on the email before I send it, but every time I run a spell check it picks up of each piece of the URL separately! So for example if I put the following URL in the email: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/europe/4824642.stm the Spellchecker will pick up on: http, bbc, uk, europe and stm as words which require suggestions. Since TB is capable of identifying a URL in the body of an email is there a setting that I've missed that will tell the Spellchecker to ignore URL's? -- Warmest regards, Paul Created using TheBat! 3.72.04 (Beta) on Windows XP Current version is 3.71.03 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

Since TB is capable of identifying PM a URL in the body of an email is there a setting that I've missed PM that will tell the Spellchecker to ignore URL's? No help I know but I copied your mail across (including the url) and the spell checker missed both your URL and mine in my sig.

According to the Ritlabs website (http://www.ritlabs.com/en/products/thebat/diff.php): In the Professional Edition the dictionaries are a part of the standard installation file. When I reinstalled my machine a few days ago I simply downloaded the latest Pro version from the RL website and entered my registration key.
