repetition<br>
check, and I've made some improvements for the next update.</p>
<p>There is a list of "stop words" that ignores common words
expected to<br>
repeat (like "the"). This helps speed up processing and avoid a lot
of<br>
issues, so I'd prefer to keep that in place. I've trimmed the list
a<br>
little bit for the update, though. While you can add to the list
(via<br>
Preferences->Proofing), you can't edit the default list. Here's
the<br>
current hardcoded list for reference: <a href="http://ckyp.us/1h05l">http://ckyp.us/1h05l</a></p>
<p>It also skips words less than 4 characters (which I've just
changed to<br>
3). A word like "up" will still be skipped, but I'm willing to<br>
reconsider the necessity of that.</p>
<p>The biggest problem you're seeing is that it was set to ignore
all<br>
prepositions, which skips words like "along". I've changed that
to<br>
remove the limitation completely.</p>
<p>I also fixed some highlighting issues in the preview, and fixed
the<br>
"ignore word" feature (option-click a highlighted word).</p>
<p>I'll release the update as soon as I can wrap up a couple of
other<br>
unrelated bugs.</p>
<p>Thanks,<br>

list of stop words for any that might be problems for me and look
forward to the update.</p>

lot in action scenes. "She put up her hands in surrender. She
grabbed his hair, hauling him up to his feet, up to face her."</p>
<p>There may be others like this that I'm not thinking of,
though.</p></div>Erica
