  • Spell Check ?

    Hi Rick!

    30 May 2020 07:55, from Rick Smith -> All:


    You can press alt-s and it will give you a list of possibilities.
    In that menu you can also change the language.
    Normally it will get that right ... but you can change it, if it got
    it wrong. (naturally only makes sense if you have configured more than
    one language)

    Thank you, however when I hit alt-s it brings up the send and change attribute dialog box?

    @S EDITSCheckerMenu ; Open spellchecker menu

    Sorry to keep troubling you with this, ok I can get the spell check to start with ^s then it lets me select language, but then nothing, it changes the mis-spelled words back to white but no correction or no offer or suggestions of correct spelling..?

    So ^S brings up a window that says "select Language" hit enter get lists of language select english us then what I described above.

    Much aprreciated

    No problem

    ok I can get the spell check to start with ^s
    then it lets me select language,

    you normally do NOT need to do anything with the language.
    If you selected eg en_us in the golded.cfg.
    No need to touch it.

    but then nothing, it changes the mis-spelled words back to
    white but no correction or no offer or suggestions of correct
    spelling..?

    type
    Heello
    move the cursor to eg one og the es or ls.
    press ctrl-s

    I see now this:
    if you select one word, it will replace what you have written with that word.
