Spellchecker with LanguageTool?
Hi,
I see that a spellchecker is on the todo list :) .
LanguageTool https://languagetool.org/ https://github.com/languagetool-org/languagetool seems to gain acceptance in many projects and is also Java based.
Any chance considering it for integration?
Thank you.
Yes, I'm already working on this on the feature/spellchecker branch.
Currently it always checks the whole text (which is slow) and includes markdown characters (which gives bad results). In the future I plan to check only changed paragraphs and exclude markdown characters. Correction suggestion and language download/selection is not yet implemented.
Made some progress on the feature/spellchecker branch:
- ignore markdown formatting characters in spell checking
- check only paragraphs, lists, block quotes and headings (ignore code blocks, tables, other)
- use wavy lines to highlight spelling problems in editor
- right-click on a problem shows a context menu with problem descriptions and suggested replacements
@JFormDesigner The "spelling" functionality in that branch just looks great :) .
IMHO it should be merged in master as it is, since it's a huge improvement .
Few tweaks that would also be nice:
- allow to set/change the language
- context menu size with corrections should not be bigger than the window: it's as big as the screen if there are many options.
