There’s no excuse any more for misspelled words, lizards. You now have a special button under the comment posting form labeled, “Check Spelling.” I think you can guess what it does.

This spelling checker uses the open source package Speller Pages, with the GNU Aspell library. It’s very similar to the spell checkers you’ve probably seen in programs like Microsoft Word.

(Sorry, British readers. It thinks “organisation” is spelled the right way, with a Z. I mean, a “zed.”)
