Ooooooops. Heh.
Y'know Slackerprep?
Well, that paper I typed for him... absolutely riddled with spelling errors.
Y'all may not know it, but I suck as an editor now that I've started writing and copying code. I can take something and type it up letter for letter pretty well, though, which is exactly what I did with Slackerprep's paper.
I'm not used to spell-checking. I used to be such a great speller, so I never had to do that. But once I turned autoedit* off to compensate for the odd spellings/conventions in VB...
I guess I'm SOL until I learn VB better and learn how to keep spelling correctly for both English and VB but not at the same time.
*Autoedit: the thing my brain runs to make sure I'm not making typos by making sure that everything that comes out of my fingers at least seems somewhat like English.
