Memo xx show (valid command or not?)

This thread got me interested in re-evaluating MEMO/BLOB which I never
embraced due to all the well known corruption issues.

I'd be interested in comments from anyone using MEMO or BLOB regularly on
recent versions of filePro.

Can the spelling library used in MEMO (and the SPELLCHECK command)  be
customized ?

In my neighbourhood things are spelt differently.
