I rely on both facilities-- autospell and manual. Although actually, it is the manual job that gives me the most headache. When I am actually typing, the underlining of English words is not such a problem-- because I am merely trying to look at the words I just typed. Whereas several weeks later, trying to scan with my eyes through a 20-page document for mistakes, when the document is littered with red marks which are not the ones I want, is tough work. It means on a page there may be 50 red marks, or which one or two are Hindi words that need correction. So I have to look quickly at all 50 words, ultimately finding the one or two Hindi words. Doing this all day long is quite laborious, whereas it would be easy if the spellchecker were only picking up the words I needed. So would the algorithm for getting aspell to ignore latin script be different from getting it to spellcheck multiple languages simultaneously? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ All of the data generated in your IT infrastructure is seriously valuable.
