Spellchecking fails in many ways in 1.6svn: 1. The F7 key doesn't do anything, the menu is necessary to get the dialog 2. The spellchecker finds wrong words, but don't fill in its dialog at all. So no hint about the correct spelling. 3. Using the "Ignore" button has no effect, so spellchecking currently stops at the first wrong word.
Reported before, now in bugzilla so it won't be forgotten. Helge Hafting
