Hi there,

sorry for the delay in getting back to you but I finally had time to follow
the steps you mentioned and it works great!

The only thing I haven't figured out is what the "dlgSpell" mapping does
since I can't really see a difference in the UI...

Last but not least I was wondering whether there was a way to use languages
other than English for the spellchecker? When I switch Sugar's language to
Spanish on build 852 the spellchecker seems to be deactivated from what I
can tell.

Cheers,
Christoph
