Thus even chrome does not seem to have the ability to remove/fix misspelled words from the dictionary content... (unless they get removed by a patch) As for the .bdic file, I have no idea about that one. ^^° I still like the old idea to replace the OOo user-dictionaries by hunspell dictionaries (or at least a format that hunspell can read). But that would require hunspell to read 'negative dictionaries' (often called exception dictionaries) and to provide user-supplied suggestions for those entries. If we then can also have means for a 'Language All' dictionary then we could replace the user-dictionaries by hunspell compatible ones, and that would be a nice thing to do I believe. Does someone feel tempted? ^_- Thomas --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
