- Here's something I've always found odd - no spellchecker I've ever seen has
- the words "spellcheck" or "spellchecker" in its dictionary. This includes
- all Mac products I've worked with, the Amiga products ProPage, Pagestream
- and ProWrite, and the Sun Unix spell(1). (actually, Prowrite seems to have
- "spellchecker", but not "spellcheck")
