Can't help with the question, but I have to ask: you're not a native english speaker?? You have zero grammar problems in this post (and only one spelling error: extend for extent). Where are you from? What would you consider your primary languages, and why don't you include english? Unless you had someone write your comment for you, I wouldn't worry about this at all.

Thanks for the kind comment!

I'm Norwegian, and I do consider English as one of my primary languages --- but it's not my native language, so it's easy to write something that doesn't sound right to others, not to mention grammatical problems. For instance, it's been years since I learned about punctuation and comma, and there are differences between Norwegian and English in this regard.

Writing comments online is one thing. It's entirely different when I have to write reports and stuff like that. That's when I'd like to use a good tool to help with grammar and general flow. It's easy to make a mistake when you're writing tens of pages of text that you have to deliver somewhere.
