Damn those fnords!
My spellchecker article had received more attention than I could have expected. Thousands of visitors played with the demo, that ironically was full with misspellings also. Ultimately this should hint just how bad speller I’m. Or from an angry midget of point view: how humble our technology is.
To this day only a human can make the contextual difference stating that although ‘millage’ is well spelled, it should be ‘mileage’ instead. Or ‘lets’ is spelled OK, but it should really be ‘let’s’. Anyway this is just one of those problems, smallish to the user but huge for developers, where I would wish to see progress made.
