OVERVIEW:

Correct spelling is still a big concern today!

With the Internet, we are exchanging more information than 
ever before and that means more reading and more writing.  
There are surprisingly a large number of applications 
released without any spelling support for users.  Though 
several big software packages such as Microsoft Word or 
WordPerfect come with built-in spelling checker, the 
spelling is only applicable just AFTER FINISHING a document.  
In fact, many users don't use this kind of after-writing-
spelling-checker to check their work especially in case of 
short documents or quick messages.  As a result, we can see 
spelling mistakes everywhere, from commercial brochures to 
personal letters. 

Is there any solution to this problem?  Should a software 
product automatically detecting and correcting every 
spelling error ON THE FLY AS WE TYPE be a right choice?  
Is there such a smart software?

The answer is YES, YES and YES.

As-U-Type is the smart software that helps you automatically
detect and correct every spelling mistake as you type.  
And more...

Working in the background of all applications, As-U-Type is 
always there watching all keys you are typing in, checking 
them and correcting all typographical mistakes such as 
misspelling words, TWo INitial CAps, lowercasing of days of 
the week (monday, etc), first letter capitalization of 
sentences and accidental cAPS LOCK being held down, etc. 
without having to run spellchecker.  You are now typing 
exactly as you did before but no longer making any mistakes.

As-U-Type helps you prevent every "ugly" spelling error that
should destroy all impressions you are trying to make to 
your customers, business partners or friends.  It works 
smoothly in almost all Windows 95/98/NT/2000 applications 
such as word editors, email clients, chatting or other 
online activities. 

This version of As-U-Type comes with a spelling dictionary of
about 100,000 entries, a correction dictionary of about 1000
entries, and a smart customizable mechanism to detect and 
correct typing mistakes.  This program also has a feature to
keep track of recent mistakes, review and prevent them from 
occurring in the future.

Besides fixing spelling errors on the fly, As-U-Type also 
helps you improve your typing skill by replacing boilerplate
text with a text shortcut for fast typing, and ease your 
form filling tasks by its smart mechanism called 
Click'n'Type (clicking in a predefined list of fields to 
stuff their values to several online forms.)

We take pains to make it more useful for you.  We are sure 
that you'll find this software is worth much more than its 
bargain $29.95 price.

Other features include:

* Automatic error detection and correction.  The auto-
  detection mechanism is fully customizable to best suit to 
  your typing style.
* Expandable spelling and correction dictionaries.
* Replacement of boilerplate text.  The text can be saved 
  to a file and reload on-use basis.
* Smart Click'n'Type feature to fill online forms.
* Date and time support.
* Undoing unwanted corrections/replacements.
* Keeping track of typing errors.
* Manual spelling checker.
* Hotkey support.
* Affordable and comes with unconditional 30-day money back 
  guarantee.
* And much more...

As-U-Type is one of the first and the only software that 
provides such features on the market today.

TYPICAL USES OF AS-U-TYPE:

Thanks to its automatic detecting and correcting feature, 
As-U-Type can be effectively used in a large amount of 
applications to ensure your correct spelling, from word 
processors to email clients, from various chatting rooms to 
online forms, etc.

Besides fixing typing mistakes on the fly, it can be used 
to:

* Word expanding for fast and accurate typing.
* Internet address keeping and retrieval.
* Password and personal information keeping and entering.
* Form filling.
* Support (e)mail writing of specific product/service.

The application of this smart product is only limited by
