The Spell Checker

Post by Torigm Khace »

I have a suggestion for the Spell Checker. If possible can Character names be added to the list of acceptable words. I'm in the horrible habit of referring to myself repeatedly in the posts and everytime the spell checker comes across it it flags it.

I know it's not a big deal to just hit the ignore button but if this is a simple task it would a nice addition, at least for me :)

How about British/Canadian spellings, Meri? Is that possible? I would love that *so* much!

It's not a fan of "colour" I've noticed... and I just tell it to learn all of the character names and other peculiar little words it doesn't like that I know are spelt properly... :o

OK, so the lessons for the SpellCheck begin... I shall take Zhavon's advice and educate the little sucker!

I don't find that it holds the words that I have entered into it with the "learn" button or whatever it is called.

I noticed that as well. Also... I think it would take a lot of work to get character names implemented. Each time someone joined, someone would have to re-program the spell checker to recognize that particular name.

There is one thing I can recommend. http://www.iespell.com has a program that integrates itself with Internet Explorer, meaning that for all five of you who don't have Internet Explorer can't use it. :P The "learn" command actually works because it adds the word into a file on your own computer. After time you'd finally have your very own Tazlure dictionary. :D
