Spell Checker Suggestion

I hope this is the appropriate place to post this suggestion.  How about adding some abbreviations that are common on these forums to the spell checker dictionary?  Like FICO!  Actually, the entire table of common abbreviations might be a good place to start.

 

I see there's a "learn" button, but I'm pretty sure that involves a cookie and won't work for me.  I have my browser delete all cookies when I close it down.

 

Thanks.

Re: Spell Checker Suggestion

Perfect spot for a suggestion. Ditto. The spell checker feature could use some improvements. "FICO" is classic. You'd think that would be the first word added.

Re: Spell Checker Suggestion

I for one would be happy to not have my screen name prompt the suggestion of "hallucinogen"! Smiley Very Happy

 

But really, it should know and accept FICO, EQ, TU, EX, util, GW, recon, and all the other terms used around here.

Great idea!  I'm told we can do this!  And starting with the list of abbreviations is a good place to begin.  Stay tuned....  Smiley Happy

Please submit your suggestions for the spell checker by adding to the list we have so far.  Thanks!

 

ETA:  My bad, Barry is going to put all the Common Abbreviations in the spell checker that are here ->  Common Abbreviations so we don't need to list any of these. 



New List:

 

FICO

ETA = Edited to Add
