I agree with Cody and JBach.

I like this; is there a keyboard shortcut for it? ( EN disallows "gen'l", replacing it with "gentle") FWIW some apps recognize when I reject a correction. When I undo the apps correction or backspace to the auto-corrected word, the app "gets the message" that I don't want that word corrected. I encourage EN adopt this function for Mac.

1. I can't seem to make a solid ( filled ) shape with skitch. I don't understand; am I missing something? I just want to make a solid square. Surely skitch can do this, no? 2. While I'm at I'm now trying to make a solid color background, is there a way to do that? 3. I used a marker tool to scribble in and eventually make a solid background. Now how do I make another object on top of that. Every time I try it turns into the selection tool (and selects what's beneath it).

Some commenters seem to make excuses for EN or overlook its shortcomings. That's not the point. It's either a superior product that strives for excellence or it's not. If it's the latter it's only a matter of time before Google or MS overtake it. Making excuses or tolerating mediocrity is of no benefit to EN or the readers of this forum.

I agree. Spell check is horrible, the worst I've seen. I'm using Win7 PC. EN doesn't know that waht = what (EN suggests "wast" - IS WAST EVEN A WORD?) teh = the (EN suggests tea!) arent = aren't (EN suggests Aretha!) Really? What is wrong with this company? It seems like the simplest words are the hardest for it to understand. Are the programmers non-English speakers? Are they illiterate? Otherwise EN is a fine product. Would EN benefit if users sent in a list of problem words so they could fix them. A 12 year old child should be able to figure these out.
