I use it for 99% of my web browsing, so it is also the tool I use when writing posts for the roumazeilles.net web site. The only thing that I did not have right out-of-the-box after download was the ability of checking my spelling (and several people noticed a few typos in my posts along with some of my bad English).<\/p>\n<p>So I decided to add a spell checker to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.opera.com\/\">Opera<\/a> (a plug-in to limit the risks of my own typos). I found a pretty simple one: <a href=\"http:\/\/aspell.net\/win32\/\">Aspell for Windows<\/a> that <a href=\"http:\/\/www.opera.com\/\">Opera<\/a> will automatically recognize when it is installed. It has dictionaries for many languages (it is easy to create one from a mere word list in your own language if you need to). It supports several languages at the same time.<\/p>\n<p>The only drawback is that it is not working in real-time, but you have to call it from a right-click on the mouse into the post box. I would have preferred an active underlining of wrongly-spelled words (like in Word or OpenOffice-Write).<\/p>\n<p>May be you know a better one that you would like to share&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Note for new bloggers: Even if I have been waiting long for this, typos in your posts just pushes forward a bad image for your own web site. Go and correct this now.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.opera.com\/support\/tutorials\/opera\/spell check\/\">http:\/\/www.opera.com\/support\/tutorials\/opera\/spell check\/<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I am in love with the Opera web browser.
