Thank you Stephan for the input.

No spellcheck on the fly doesn’t change matters.

I’m using MacOS 12.4

I’m somewhat wondering if it’s possible to simply revert to an older 
form of LyX. My needs and expectations are not that high. Thought kLyX 
0.12 was a life-changing miracle back in 2000.

Thanks

Tim
