O.P. [Suggestion]Word filter improvement
I think it would be useful if the word filter had an option to switch on/off a certain filtered word as case sensitive.

example:  I want to filter the word f*** but not the word F*cK, so I turn off the checkbox "Turn on case sensitivity for this word."

This is especially good with abbreviations.
Example: I am going to ny (---> Plus! would now change this to New York, but I dont want it to. I want it to change it to New York when i type NY)

etc.

~another good suggestion by aC23 ;)~

RE: [Suggestion]Word filter improvement
There is a "WordFilterCaseSensitive" registry key for this.

See http://msgplus.net/help_registry.php to learn how to do this.

Also an easier way is to download Plus! Tweak! from this thread

That's great, but it would be a lot simpler if it were integrated into Plus! directly :$
Also, i'd want it to be case sensitive with certain words, not all.

the /i switch could come in handy here.

RE: [Suggestion]Word filter improvement
Many options (if not all) in Plus! can be made very advanced. However, Plus! isn't only for the experts, but mostly for the "n00bs" (if I can use that disrespectful word). So many options will lack advanced features (eg: like reg. exp. for the filters)...

Many options can be made so advanced and tweakable that you need multiple screens for 1 option. Somewhere there is the need to draw a line. In Plus! this line is "mostly used", "n00b-friendlyness", that sort of stuff... ;)
