absolutely! it should be trivial to add simple "check all spelling" to,

hi there,
i realise the flyspell and spell checking .el files heavily depend upon
spell/ispell/aspell being installed on the system, but many modern GUI
libs (such as GTK+2 with GtkSpell and OS X's Aqua/Cocoa) have the
ability to add spell checking to any text-input window. can anyone see

no thanks, i don't like it much. i changed my OS X bindings to be more
emacs like, i have no intention of then running an emacs distro which
aims to copy the OS X original bindings.

same thing happens in the official CVS build :-(
anyone using a Carbon build can confirm this by setting the
international system preference to a DVORAK layout and noting that in
emacs the control sequences follow a QWERTY layout

i am using the carbon build on OS X:
http://macemacsjp.sourceforge.jp/en/
an example is typing C-q C-j sends the sequence for C-x C-c, whereas me
typing C-x C-c is being interpreted as C-b C-i!!
interestingly, console mode works (even other builds over ssh), so this
is a carbon specific bug!

cool. i am a little confused by this macro... i have only ever written
defun's before. why is this a defmac and not a defun?
a few more questions if you don't mind...
what does the "p\nP" argument to interactive do?
what is "cnt raw"?
why do you call self-insert-command?
