if you hit reply to go to the all singing and dancing reply box, there is a spell checker!!

things like ECU and bhp is a bit patronising i think.

Also you may note that whether you type upper or lower case, it corrects nicely to uppercase.

Suppose, CV means nothing on its own unless its accompanied with joint.

Unless it was CVJ but never heard anyone use that before.
