- This is documented somewhere in the Mathematica Bible (what isn't?) but
- you could easily miss it. I frequently have notebooks with variables like
- amatrix, bmatrix, etc. (it's less a matter of enjoyment than one of giving
- clear variable names) and get tired of the messages as well. Put the following
- at the top of your notebook
-
- Off[General::spell]
- Off[General::spell1]
-
- and the messages will vanish. Another good trick is to bring up the style
- inspector and make the cell which you put the above commands into an
- initialization cell, then it will be automatically executed when you open
- the notebook (well, you have to set that option in Preferences) and you'll
- never see the messages.
-
- Hope this is helpful -- Tom
