Best Spell Checker?

[PX]Kal Bob · Post by **[PX]Kal Bob** » Mon Jan 31, 2005 4:17 pm

I was just posting some crap and was trying to get the spelling right on the word “Bastards”. I got tired of the damn spell-check in MicroCrap Office and went to my favourite spellchecker, Google.ca.

I find that Google works better then most, maybe OpenOffice is close at times.

Anyway, what do you all think? I only posted the 4 I can think of. Do any of you know better ones?

Personally, I just try and spell things properly... I've never had a problem with OpenOffice.org though. The entire suite works great.

I just use the one in Office. I like the one in Firefox, though. It links up with dictionary.com and checks what you type. Although, I always used Corel for my French courses.

Speaking of spelling the word bastards, it seems that our friend Gray has a little trouble with that word himself.

Somthing that Gray often calls people in place of bastard. He hope's that it will one day spread to the rest of the population.
You bastered!....wait a minuite, isn't it bastard?

I'd rather be a bastered than a bastard.

AH!!!
Thats hilarious!
Good work Jon!

Spell Checkers are all evil, thus sayeth the English major!

Anyway, I use Microsoft Word, but only use the spelling hints to see if I might be wrong. Usually the computer is wrong and I am right, so I tend not to use it. There should be a none option in this survey, butt eye gess gotes kan spell bedder dan McGrows Oft.

I realize that. I wanted to know the situation in which this conversation occurred. Either that, or if Homey J just pulled it out of his @$$.

Samurai, try switching your language to English (Canada).

I do set it for English (Canada). The computer is still wrong most of the time.

I would like to also mention Spelling Cow Mod for the message board. I think it is a great spell checker!
