Hello.

Today I've sadly discovered there is no spellcheck at function convertToMeters; in blockMeshDict dictionary file.

BlockMesh just read it anyway without any error or information.
ex. converToMeters 0.001; will be read by blockMesh and it wont be actually converted to 0.001 scale.

...otherwise convertToMeters 0.001; will be read too but it will convert to correct scale.

This is in my opinion an error which can give very very bad informations. And can make confusions especially with new users.

Cheers.
seav
