The spell checker is obviously under used and I think it is due to the large number of correct words that the software mistakes for errors. What is your opinion?
A case in point, the 'F1' above was flagged as an error!

That is because it is PressF1 without a space.

253689 2004-07-20 05:42:00 But I can imagine advising people to use the F1 key. :D Of course, I would probably use it in the context Ctrl/Alt/F1, and the Spell Check complains about Ctrl too, suggesting Trill, Troll, or Cyril. :_| Curiosuly it accepts "Alt".
It's a gude thing I can spell, sin't it?
