Angry Spell Check

I know it'll never happen but, CAN WE PLEASE GET A MANDATORY SPELL CHECK AROUND HERE? Some people's spelling ability around here is freaking amazing.

Sorry had to post it, a pet peeve of mine.

I totally agree. It's a huge pet peeve of mine. If I ever find a free patch for it we will add it.

Honestly, I would even donate $$ to get this feature added, that's how much it annoys me.

You can definitely tell the difference between a typo and a dumb ***.

More importantly, it limits the ability of the search feature. Search for torque converter and it's not going to find tork konvertor. We can miss some valuable info because people slept through 1st grade.

I use a web browser that has built in spell check. It automatically underlines any misspelled word as I'm typing.
