Just wanted to chime in and thank you for offering these alternative versions! Our editorial staff have wrestled with this same issue, and this will make a big difference!
I suppose if you wanted to integrate these into a future version of XXE, you would need to make the new version detect when old (ISO-8859-1) dictionaries are present and automatically convert them to UTF-8 at first launch. I certainly believe it would be a worthwhile change. -- Kevin Yank Technical Director, sitepoint.com On 31/01/2009, at 6:41 AM, Hussein Shafie wrote: > Please download the following files: > --- > http://www.pixware.fr/_download/apostrophe_en/xsc.jar > 115063bytes, Fri Jan 30 08:25:53 PM CET 2009 > > http://www.pixware.fr/_download/apostrophe_en/en.dar > 316349bytes, Fri Jan 30 08:26:36 PM CET 2009 > --- > > [1] Replace XXE_install_dir/bin/xsc.jar by the downloaded xsc.jar > > This new xsc.jar saves personal dictionaries using the UTF-8 encoding. > The stock xsc.jar saves personal dictionaries using the ISO-8859-1 > encoding. > > [2] Replace XXE_install_dir/addon/spell/en.dar by the downloaded > en.dar > > This new en.dar considers the real apostrophe (copied from the email > you > sent us) as %noninitial and %nonfinal character in addition to '-', > '.', > "'". > > *IMPORTANT* you'll have to do that for each new release of XMLmind XML > Editor until we find the good strategy to solve your problem.
