Mudlet Spell check

[braeden]

Hello everyone.

I play in Aetolia and have just began switching over to Mudlet and I must say it is brillant . My only concern is the lack of inbuilt spell checker. As someone from a non-english background i still have trouble with the words from time to time, so for a long while I used zmud.. and yes it is a bad client, but I used it only for two reasons the spell checker and my brother had it installed on the laptop he gave me


So do you all think it would be wise to add one down the track to help people like myself feel more at home using this wonderful program. Please feel free to tell me to get a grip I do not mind or give your own ideas.



Thank you and take care.

I'll add one for the next release. It's a five minutes patch.

Thank you so much for adding this. You are all great people.


Thank you again

Added Hunspell spell checking. Do we really need multiple dictionaries i.e. GB, US, AUS? Currently, I've only added US.

Great to get this!

Personally I -would- appreciate if it also included British spellings, particularly since some MUDs define British as their default "correct" spelling.

Probably just American and British would suffice for now.

Question... hunspell is rather popular already. Can we use the systems default dictionaries, if any exist?

Because shipping our own would mean that any words that the user added to dictionaries of chrome, openoffice, etc etc would not be present in ours. So it's best to use existing ones by default.

I don't know how to do this in a cross platform fashion. If there is an easy way, please let me know.

OK

I'm fairly certain that aspell is already designed to be packaged and shipped with QT applications.
