-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi Kenneth,
On 28 November 2001 at 09:22:37 [GMT-0500] (which was 14:22 where I live) Kenneth S.

As it is, it is KSR> not really autocorrect. Auto (self) correct - not Automatic correct. Not really a misnomer, just an easily misunderstood name. The TB implementation of AutoCorrect will cause a self correction for a marked auto-correctable word on a double right click. This is how the function operates, how it is designed to operate and how it always has operated. It is not a bug. Nor is the feature bugged. The "bug" is in some people's expectations and possibly in the naming of the function (although I don't actually agree with that POV). As David quite rightly points out, for the correction to happen without some level of confirmation would be a problem for users without those expectations. If you wish to request a new feature of "correct spelling mistakes without having to double right click" (shudder), then feel free to do so. If you wish to report a bug, feel free to do so. It is like to create tensions and arguments when a "new feature" request is sneaked in under the guise of a "bug report". My own vote on this new feature request is that I prefer the status quo by far. - -- Cheers -- .\\arck D.
