    A computer program is spelt like this.
    Any other programme is spelt like this.
    The verb for both is programming.
    Of course this will vary according to some countries and some members who want to be awkward.

    P.S. Spelt is a variation of spelled. It is also a type of wheat.

    Aww, but 1 M looks better.

    I'll wait for manker's input tho, he's the fussiest.

    Always better to wait a while than listen to some Scottish bloke, I find


    However, on this occasion, Boab's fluked it - it's definitely 2 ms. The reason the incorrect version is in that online dictionary is because it's a common mispelling that has been accepted by lots of, non-fussy (), individuals and organisations. Those bastards.
