spell check while editing post?


there doesn't seem to be a spell check to spell check my posts after i edit them (which with my spelling can make it hard to read sometimes I'm told.)

i was wondering if it was possible to add one?

Use konqueror as your browser if you have KDE installed it has spell checking as you type, forget exactly when they first put it but it would be > Version 3.

veritas is correct, it's on the TODO.
