DISCUSSION

*SpellSkip is used to add a word to a list of words that should be skipped during the course of spell checking a document, but that should not be added permanently to the user's personal word list. *SpellSkip processes the word as described in "Processing of Words Passed to the Spell Checker". It then adds the word to the list of skipped words.

With regard to capitalization, *SpellSkip stores the word exactly as written.
