Subject: [HPFGU-OTChatter] Britspelling question

Can anyone (Brits only, please) tell me whether "programme" is correct
as a verb, as in "programme a computer"? Should the verb form be
"program" or is the verb spelled the same way as the noun?

Carol, whose British editing client doesn't want her spelling
Americanized, alas for me!
