The spell checker is provided by the system software -- in other words, it is baked into Apple MacOs. See:

Fonts are not a big thing for me -- except that I have an intense dislike of Helvetica as a screen font. It irritates me no end that it seems to be the default everywhere I go. I used to use Verdana all the time, and I now use IBM Plex Mono on screen. They are about the only two fonts I've used in m...

You need to look at Placeholders under the Help menu. Be aware that there are a LOT of placeholders. You can probably achieve some of what you want with them.

The Technical Support for Windows section would be a better place to ask:

I recently received an email from the developers of HoudahSpot advising against updating to Catalina because it "had broken many things". This seems to include Apple's own Mail app, to judge by what is being written on Macrumors and the Eclectic Light blog. Unfortunately, this does seem to...

There is a report on macrumors that Mail is affected by bugs. https://www.macrumors.com/

I, too, keep all my receipts. The oldest one on my present system dates from 2007.

I would have said this is a job for Hazel:

Brilliant utility, and very handy for organising all sorts.

a short „Hi we’re still working on it“ would be very reassuring That is pretty much the gist of Katherine's post late on 1 October. She also points out that it seems to be an Apple bug. So it might be better to light a fire under Apple instead of LitnLat. It seems that Apple broke it, so they will ...

Personally, I'd also be wary of saving on the Desktop. Worth having a close look at the manual.

I would say you don't necessarily have to use any of these features for what they are "supposed" to be used for. You can invent your own uses for many, if not all, of them. I would think it would be worth creating a small test project and playing with the features to see how you might be a...

The Finder is your friend. If you use the menu item Go->Recents (Cmd-Sh-F) it will show all the files you have used most recently. You can put it in the Dock if you like. Or put it in the sidebar of the Finder. Or you could used a saved search (in the sidebar again) which shows all the most recently...

Plenty of caveats about the research, but still interesting.

My conclusion would be that different cultures have different naming conventions, and that combining two of them might not work. I'm no expert, but it is well understood that Hungarians typically put their family name first and their personal name second. This was also very common in Italy (where I ...
