Description Ray Strode [halfline] 2007-07-09 19:09:36 UTC 
It would be nice if you mistype a word in the dictionary applet if it would point out that it's misspelled.

Also, if you search for a word that's not found, then it would be nice if it gave a list of guesses to choose from.

This feature would allow the dictionary applet to also double as a 'spell check this word for me please' applet.  Currently one has to open a file or a tomboy note or webform that does spell checking just to check the word.  An applet would make this very easy and be another cool feature of a Linux desktop.
