How can you edit the words the PPC "learns"? Like typos.

a soft reset will clear the typos... and everything else it has learned
since the last soft reset

There are a couple of utilities which allow editing the list... google time.

Sadly not in WM5. After years of wishing a soft reset DIDN'T clear the
list, well, you know the old saying: "be careful what you wish for!"

Now every misspelling and typo you make is preserved in persistent
storage!

Or, for a quick solution you can delete \Windows\dyncompdict.dat and soft-
reset and start compiling common typos again from scratch! ;-)

I've elaborated on all these questions in

Pocket PC Mag article.

Will publish an updated version (with listing the new editors released in
the meantime) of all these in the near future.
