when I open a Word document full of my made-up words and Indianisms, a high-browed Spellcheck runs red and green lines everywhere. Do this, do that. Here take some synonyms. And some suggestions. Want to turn 'hamare' into 'hammered'? And 'jalebi' into 'jailbird', 'kathe' into 'Kathy' (wonder what one has to do to get one's name in Gates' english), 'kannada' into 'Canada', and 'Tamizh' into 'Amish'? Fragment, it tells me in bold.
I love that I can smile sorrily at the naiiiiiiive code-dependant grammarian sitting in my computer, and Ignore All. Oooh I sock 'em soooo hard. Best BEST feature of the entire damn thingie.
