[libreoffice-l10n] "are flagged" vs "appear as a typo"

2017-11-12 Thread Marco A.G.Pinto
Hello!

Sorry for this philosophical question.

Can I replace in the GB dictionary FAQ the word "appears as a typo" by
"are/is flagged"?

FAQ:
http://marcoagpinto.cidadevirtual.pt/faq.html

I believe that both mean the same, but I need some advice before
changing all occurrences.

Thanks!

Kind regards,

[libreoffice-l10n] Commit (merge) GB Speller

2016-12-01 Thread Marco A.G.Pinto
Hello!

Stuart Swales has approved the speller after I have done the changes he
requested on Monday or so.

Could someone give a +2 to it?:
https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/#/c/30677/

Right now I am kind of away from IRC because I need to have my PhD
project ready on the 12th and I have been under a terrible pressure.

Thanks!

Kind regards,

[libreoffice-l10n] Approve (review) the GB speller

2016-11-25 Thread Marco A.G.Pinto
Hello Stuart Swales,

Sophi told me about you on IRC.

I am maintaining the GB speller, having added ~25K words since I grabbed
the project two or three years ago:
http://marcoagpinto.cidadevirtual.pt/proofingtoolgui.html
Yes, I am improving it using my own Hunspell tool.

I have committed the latest version for review in Gerrit:
https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/#/c/30677/

JanIV said it will be needed another person to review it.

Could you have a look at it?

I tried to add you as a reviewer moments ago but your e-mail address
appeared twice when I typed it and I get an error when I press the add
button.

Thank you!

Kind regards,
   >Marco A.G.Pinto

[libreoffice-l10n] GB speller

2016-11-21 Thread Marco A.G.Pinto
Hello!

I was wondering if someone could approve the GB speller for LO 5.3:
https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/#/c/30677/

It is the ultimate speller, even better than most commercial ones.

Thanks!

Kind regards,

[libreoffice-l10n] Autocorrect pt_PT - 2016-07-16

2016-07-16 Thread Marco A.G.Pinto
Hello!

Just wondering if I open a Bugzilla case with 53 new words to be merged to:
https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/gitweb?p=core.git;a=blob_plain;f=extras/source/autocorr/lang/pt/DocumentList.xml;hb=HEAD

Will it come in LO 5.2 or is there a special date to open the Bugzilla case?


Thanks!

Kind regards,

Michael and people,

I make a brief explanation of how .AFF files work in Proofing Tool GUI's
manual:
http://marcoagpinto.cidadevirtual.pt/proofingtoolgui_files/ProofingToolGUI_manual_V30.html

But it is an unfinished manual since I haven't had much free time to
work on everything.

[libreoffice-l10n] English Dictionaries Project - Introduction by Marco Pinto

2016-05-01 Thread Marco A.G.Pinto
Hello!

I am Marco from Portugal and I have been involved on several projects in
the past.

I have translated Pretty Good Privacy 2.6.3i to pt_PT back in 1997,
which was my first translation.

I have also translated Gpg4win, OpenSlides, sites and other documentation.

Lately I have dedicated most of my free time to my PhD project/thesis,
to the British Dictionary, to my tool Proofing Tool GUI and LanguageTool.

Around three years ago I had the idea of creating a place to store the
most up-to-date English dictionaries so that I could create OXTs for AOO
and LO and so that people could download the files from there to other
projects.

I have been trying to find the original authors and get their most
recent files but most of them are gone for a long-time, thus my fork of
en_GB.

I created a GitHub repository and there are already persons/companies
that download the files from there using scripts.

When I created my tool, Proofing Tool GUI, the first goal was to create
a thesaurus editor and the second to create a dictionary editor.

Both have been accomplished.

I offered myself to improve the thesaurus of the pt_PT language for
Minho University, but they never said anything so the project was halted
(I will resume somewhere in the future).

But other persons are developing thesauri using Proofing Tool GUI.

I have also forked and been improving en_GB and have added so far around
21K words and I am releasing it as extensions for Mozilla, OpenOffice
and LibreOffice:

*Mozilla (British):*
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/british-english-dictionary-2

*OpenOffice:*
http://extensions.openoffice.org/en/project/english-dictionaries-apache-openoffice

*LibreOffice:*
http://extensions.libreoffice.org/extension-center/english-dictionaries

Notice that for AOO and LO I am releasing OXTs with several English
Dictionaries.

My forked en_GB is the best British dictionary around and I have even
bought a Gold Account in Oxford Dictionaries in order to test the words
so that I may add them if needed. I first paste texts into Thunderbird
and, if it appears as typos, I check them in Oxford and add them if they
are valid words. Since the en_GB that came with AOO was obfuscated, I
grabbed the one from Mozilla around three years ago.

I do monthly releases of en_GB.

This is what I have been doing for nearly three years.

I and other people realised that the bundled dictionaries were totally
outdated and I had some difficulties setting up the technical stuff
(Git, Gerrit, etc.) and I had a discussion on IRC that a push is very
likely not going to be merged because of some licence problems and such.

Thanks!

Kind regards,
 >Marco A.G.Pinto

[libreoffice-l10n] English Dictionaries updated!

2016-04-28 Thread Marco A.G.Pinto
Hello!

I have updated the dictionaries before the official release date as it
is becoming an habit
(available as extensions).

*Mozilla (British):*
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/british-english-dictionary-2

*OpenOffice:*
http://extensions.openoffice.org/en/project/english-dictionaries-apache-openoffice

*LibreOffice:*
http://extensions.libreoffice.org/extension-center/english-dictionaries


I have added 811 new words to en_GB including over 200 proper names.


Kind regards from,

[libreoffice-l10n] Australian dictionary - Fixes - 2016-03-14

2016-03-19 Thread Marco A.G.Pinto
Hello!

Tom Anderson opened a case in OpenOffice Bugzilla about corrupted
accents in words in UTF-8 due to a bad conversion by the old maintainers.

I have tried to fix all words myself by auto-correct + proofreading
using en_GB which is the dictionary with more words.

Please check:
https://bz.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=126863
and tell me if you find any incorrect words in the .ZIP .

Please also advice me what I should add in the README file according to
this fix.

If all goes well, this dictionary will be updated in the next release.

PS-> I sent this e-mail to the AOO's mailing lists but no one replied,
so Dennis Roczek suggested this mailing list.

Thanks!

Kind regards,
    >Marco A.G.Pinto

Re: [libreoffice-l10n] Australian dictionary - Fixes - 2016-03-14

2016-03-19 Thread Marco A.G.Pinto
Hello Michael,

I am improving GB and packing the OXT English files.

To edit the AU dictionary you can use my open-source tool (Proofing Tool
GUI):
http://marcoagpinto.cidadevirtual.pt/proofingtoolgui.html

The user guide is outdated (no free time to finish it yet) but you can
read the dictionary part of it.

My advice for you to find missing words in AU is to check my GB wordlist.

The rules for the .AFF can be found in my Dropbox:
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/30674540/enGB_original_author_explanation.aff

I believe was able to get the explanation above before its official site
vanished.

I make monthly releases of all dictionary files in OXT format.

It would be great if you could make a quick (minor) improvement to AU so
that I can ship it in the monthly update, for example, you could add
basic software names.

If you have any questions, just ask.

Thanks!

Kind regards,
>Marco A.G.Pinto
