Spell checker for your posts!!

Having seen some of the spelling on this board, I though I'd point out this tool to everyone.

https://www.iespell.com/ - despite the name it works with many different browsers.

Its very easy to use, all you do, is before you have submitted your post, right click in the box where you typed, and click 'check spelling', and it brings up a box very much like the Microsoft office spell checker.

I suspect it wouldn't like a lot of the electronics terminology, but if someone wanted to add some common terms to the custom dictionary, and put the file on here for others to use, we would have a lot less misunderstandings, and it would help non-English speakers when posting.

That could solve about a third of the problem. I did a search for iegrammar.com and iepunctuation.com. No luck.

lol, I agree, I've been guilty of all 3. I'm sure some of my posts read as though Charlie Gordon wrote them.

Remember, you can find (almost) anything on Google. That doesn't mean it's always correct, but in this case...

Charlie Gordon is from "Flowers for Algernon" by Daniel Keyes. Some of Charlies journal entries require mental gymanstics to read.

Ron, sorry, I've just got into the habit of asking you lot first!!

*Bows to google*

Ron, also, I agree, shame about grammar, but I did a dictionary extension instead: https://www.thefreedictionary.com/add2ie.htm (which has a built in encyclopedia function). Anyway, in my experience, most grammar engines are awful.
