[WT-support] Automatic dupe checking

[Clive Whelan]

No it doesn't that's the whole point, nothing is displayed until the 
shift key is pressed even when that Tools | Data Entry | Exchange 
Guessing| Automatically combo is selected. Ditto if after delay

I only ever use one mode, and that's CW.

I've no idea what happens in the Check Partial window as I don't use it- 
just copy what I hear.

This happens in any contest and in any v4.x of WT. Specifically I'm 
using 4.2.0 dev. Today specifically in the SAC contest but in every 
other contest I've used to date

Do you use ESM; is it an issue thereof perhaps ?
