Windows 10 has spell check, as does Windows 11. In Windows 11 it's
Settings/Time and Language/Typing. It works in Notepad. Not sure why
Notepad needs its own.

You can't imagine when an app to take notes...

....in ENGLISH (or whatever language the user requires)...

....would need a spell chacker.

The whole point is that to date, Notepad hasn't been able to USE the
system wide spellchecker, Liarboy.

In my defense I don't think I ever used Notepad to create a document. I
did use Wordpad a few times and it did spellcheck. I also used Notepad
to view text documents and never needed spellcheck for those.

BTW, what's a spell chacker? (I note that chacker is a spelling error
caught by the MS system-wide spellcheck and highlighted in Thunderbird.
Did your beloved Mac not catch that? LOL at you Liarboy)

I failed to catch that it had caught it.
