P.S. I've turned off everything non-essential, like grammar check, spell check, style check, and never NEVER use "auto-format". That's auto-fuck-up if I ever saw it. Who does Bill Gates think he is, examining my content for wordiness or dangling participles? Does he really think my modifier is too far from my subject? And that dictionary is SOOOOO stupid. You'll note, also, that there are different styles to choose from, and you have to go into each and turn thse things off that I mentioned above, just in case it gets the idea that you're writing something technical vs. general vs. scholarly.
