"Getting Closer" Spell Checker

 Hmm, "lazer" has a green line, I must be close, but "velosarapter" has a double brown. Better look that one up.

Regular word processors just tell you if the spelling's wrong, this one would coax you into actually learning how to spell.

So if your spelling of a particular word is close, say one letter off, you get a thin green line. Two letters off, a thicker red line etc and a double brown line would mean the computer has no clue as to what you're trying to spell.

       What it could do is also just put the line, instead of through the whole word, through the unlikely sections.
