[geeklog-devtalk] Re: Spelling interface ready for testing...

[Gavin]

Is the spell check feature easily turned off at run time? My browser 
has a built in spell checker (in fact its built in the OS so every app 
has a spell checker), which I use for everything. Adding spell check 
code to GL is great for submissions, but I would never use it 
personally.
