 It's potentially better than SpellChk, since DSpell can do
 global replacements, and editing outside of the cited word,
 neither of which SpellChk does.  Getting the whole list of
 potentially misspelled words at one is nice, too, to see if
 it's even necessary to bother going thru with the rest of the
 check.  With the WordSet bit fixed and the auxiliary lexicons
 hooked in to ignore/add words, it'd be very nice.

 TSE 2.5 shipping crunch?  Here's an easier question, about
 'command' in menus.  I've looked thru all the *.s files I have
 on hand, and checked docs, and there's no real example given
 on using MenuStr(), which I think should handle the question.
 My trials have all led to tribulation.  Given
menu NormFonts()
 'Jorj',Dos("@c:\axe\vid\^vft Jorj^-",_dont_prompt_)
  'r25',Dos("@c:\axe\vid\^vft r25^-",_dont_prompt_)
  ' 25',Dos("@c:\axe\vid\^vft 25^-",_dont_prompt_)
        ......
  ' 50',Dos("@c:\axe\vid\^vft r50^-",_dont_prompt_)
 'Lat1',Dos("@c:\axe\vid\^vft Lat1^-",_dont_prompt_)
end
 I would think that, since the choices are all of a type,
 I should be able to use MenuStr().  But how?
... Everything is controlled by a small evil group to which,
