Folks,
I'm in Scotland, writing software guides and online help for the US market.
I'm using FrameMaker's US dictionary to make sure I spell "colour",
"customise" etc in the US style ("color", "customize" etc). The spell
checker is happy with either "dialog" or "dialogue" - a word that appears
<g> frequently - does anyone have any opinions on which I should use?
