v0.14.0

Spellcheck.

• Drafter checks your spelling as you write, in US or British English, with its own dictionaries built in. It works offline and in the desktop app.
• It knows a screenplay. Character names, the locations in your scene headings, the title page, transitions and the craft's own words (INTERCUT, PRE-LAP, voiceover) are never marked. Notes and boneyard are skipped unless you turn them on.
• Misspelled words are underlined. Right-click one, or press Mod+., for:
  • Suggestions. A suggestion changes only the letters that differ, so emphasis like *this* stays.
  • Add to this script's dictionary. The word is kept in the file, and it takes one undo.
  • Add to my dictionary. The word is known in every script.
  • Ignore here.
• Mod+; and Mod+Shift+; go to the next and previous misspelling.
• Check spelling lists every misspelling in Problems' new Spelling group.
• On a phone, the element bar has a Spelling button.
• Settings has the language, whether to check notes and boneyard, and your own dictionary.
• Checking runs in the background and never slows typing.
• A new Third-party licences help page lists the dictionaries' licences.
