On a side note, my spelling is not very good either, but I found that it has improved through the use of an "immediate indication". This also gives me confidence for correctly spelled words as I write. (One a good day, writing with gvim, I have found myself checking --in disbelieve-- if the checker hasn't failed if no mistakes showed up). I think one of the crucial differences, is the "naturally" high number of mathematics, logisticians, etc. in the LyX user and developer community, who have a very different approach to *writing* than one finds humanities. This presumably has resulted in this peculiar situation that up to now --at this highly advanced stage of LyX-- this rather basic feature has never emerged. Cheers, Sam
