OT: Shakespeare and spell checking (was Text processing on XSLT 2.0)

2005-04-04 15:05:07
A comment I can't resist:

It's wrong to use a spell checker on Shakespeare's works, because:
A) Standardized spelling didn't exist in his time
B) He's Shakespeare and you're not

(No offense meant, of course - a comment made purely in jest)

On a more serious note, hats off to both Dimitre and Mike for FXSL and 
Saxon - excellent work.

Among the unknown words are such nice words as:

affordeth
affrighted
ariseth
arithmetician
arrivance
bethink
betimes
bewhored

... why I almost never use a spell-checker -- they never know my 
favorites!

(Seriously -- that's some pretty impressive work going on over there.)

Cheers,
