A spell-checker is very useful, but it cannot adjust Klingon.

Many office programs have this option, which can be activated: Got to the Extra or Options  or 
Settings panel of your Auto-Correction or automatic Spellcheck. I don't know exactly where it is, 
but it should be found at 'general settings': 
"REplace TYpos LIke THese" Deactivate it! yIchu'Ha'.
Also deactivate "Start every sentence with a capital"
And finally, although I haven't seen anyone struggle with that on this list, deactivate the automatic 
replacement of "these quotemarks" into ,,this kind of quotemarks´´ - it makes you crazy while 
typing Klingon.

And then, it should be no problem writing a Klingon text on your computer. ;-)
