hi gang,

just wondering if there is a way to get your macbook pro to capitalise:

1) the start of every sentence automatically (just like MS word)
2) "I"
3) all other words that needs the capital letter treatment e.g. countries, peoples names, etc, etc.

****

I am also looking for an auto-correct function which would be active in the following situations:

1) when writing an email on gmail
OR

2)reply to a thread on boards.ie

thanks guys.
