I want to see what a word processor shows; to see       text with suspect words marked, so that I can see at a glance which are typos       and which are        intentional but uncommon words. Ecaple : in this paragraph, 'ons' and       'Ecaple' are marked; 'ons' is intentional, and 'Example' is a typo word that       I do know how to spell.              --         (c) John Stockton, near London, UK.
