I can't wait for higher-quality built-in proofreader on os x. I don't love real-time spell checkers, I'd prefer to just dump an email with no error highlighting, hit a keystroke and have it re-written proofed (with dyslexia often the only way I can find my own errors is by reading the text backwards). I built a GPT in the "built your own GPT" thinger ChatGPT has now, and I copy/paste stuff in, hit enter and it sends back a corrected version and underneath a list of the corrections it made. So far it's batting 1.000. I'm going to see if I can use this for that.

FWIW I just ran a bunch of tests with GPT 4 and it’s remarkably bad at spelling and grammar correction.

have you considered using Services for this? Services already support taking selected text and doing transformations on it, and allow user-configurable keyboard shortcuts. Plus it will work in any app, not just Notes.

That feature is so well hidden I kind of forgot it exist. I'll check out the selection/transformation stuff!

It is well hidden. It’s also amazing. Services are available system-wide, work in any application and can be as sophisticated as you want, if only because you can put as many shell scripts as you’d like in them and then Bob’s your uncle. It’s one of the key features I miss when I use Linux.

Seems hugged. Look forward to looking at it when the site is back up - I want this exact sort of thing.

Should be up now (it's a static site behind Cloudflare)

Hm. Now getting "ERR_SSL_PROTOCOL_ERROR" in Chrome on OSX.

Yeah, Apple services are one of a bunch of semi-forgotten features of macOS that are real gems

That's strange, the certificate should be valid (from Let's Encrypt, SHA-256 fingerprint ending in …ccdb4). Could it be an issue with client time settings or an outdated browser cache?
