In FirstClass, I always type my messages using Canadian English spelling. The client is defaulted to en-US though, and never seems to save my preference in language. I checked the program's Preferences menu, but could not find any reference to choosing your default language. How can I set this permanently, so my spell check realizes I know how to spell in my language?

In FirstClass, when you start a Spell Check session, and it brings up the spelling dialog, you can choose to save the options there. It is a little tricky to set, but easy enough once it was discovered.

  1. Open a new message
  2. Type in a word in your language you want to have spelled correctly (in my case, colour)
  3. Put a space, and type another word of gibberish (in my case, asdfasdfasdf)
  4. Start the spell check

  5. Click the triangle by Options to expand it. Then choose the correct language, hit Save Options, then Done. Do not spell the word of gibberish correctly

Now, when you type a message using your language, it will use your language preference properly. Note that this is a client-side option, so if you log in on multiple computers, you'll need to change this on all of them.
