Re: What's New From SSII

I'd like to clarify what I wrote about NiftySpell's main dictionary and 
user dictionary...

Digital dictionaries do not generally include Proper Nouns such as 
people's names, and most don't even include computer terms. So, a program 
like AppleWorks GS will tell you that the terms "IIGS" and "AppleWorks" 
are misspelled.

The "work around solution" for spell checkers is to allow people to 
create their own custom dictionaries, so that they can add words as they 
go along. After all, if a spell checker flags _your_ name every single 
time, that could get annoying after a while.

NiftySpell, just like AppleWorks and AppleWorks GS, lets you set up a
custom dictionary where you can add words that are not found in the main 
dictionary.

NiftySpell differs from AW and AWGS in that you can have multiple custom 
dictionaries that can be swapped out with the click of a mouse.
