Just bumping the topic to let anyone who might be following this program know that I've updated my program and if you are using it you might want to switch over. The old saves will not work though so if you want to convert them let me know and I'll tell you what changes to make to your save file.

Awesome program timns I can't wait to start playing with it.

How intrusive is it if you're writing a story or working with lots of medical or legal terms will it try to correct those words to it's closest equivalent or just ignore them because they are not close enough to anything in the dictionary is their a quick hotkey to enable disable the program?

Description
I've been working on this project for my RPG group who plays a game published by White Wolf called Scion. Do to all the time we were wasting constantly recalculating our dice pools I decided we needed a way to quickly solve that problem and since nearly every player was tracking their character on a editable pdf it was an obvious next step to create a program that could handle that for us. After I got started I pretty quickly decided that it should be able to keep track and calculate everything for us.

Developar:

I am certainly interested in continuing my work on this and I am currently in the middle of changing the look a bit and adding quite a few more features and I would love to hear any ideas you may have. As for your support I have no idea what that would be but sure! I would actually like a way to add plug in support but I have no idea how I would even start to do something like that.

Thanks

My Project is now released but unfortunately I was called away and am now three states away from my computer and I did not have a chance to compile and upload my final release for NANY but my current version is very useable. I did think of calling my brother to do that for me but the idea of walking my computer illiterate brother through compiling and uploading to dcmembers.com sends shivers down my spine.
 
I am not at all opposed to continuing to work on this project and will infact release at least one more version though I would like to know if anyone finds this useful or has any suggestions or tips.
