Could someone please give me tips on useing the spell checker in dbt.
I just went to use it, and realised why I haven't before on a regular
basis. I tried once before and got the same result.
When I try to use the spell checker, I get given a message "unable to
add list of suggested replacements". this is a bit odd because I
haven't even tried to add a word to the dictionary yet.
Also, the spell checker is not totally accessible with speech. I'm
currently using wineyes 4.5 sp3. The word to be corrected doesn't
appear on my braille display, and I have to use the numpad buttons to
move the mouse cursor to find the word.
George, is there any chance that the spell checker has been revamped
for dbt 10.5 so that it is similar to the one in word, which allows
one to tab between the different options i.e add word, ignore word
skip, etc, edit corrections etc?
I have made a mistake with a search and replace, so that I
accidentally globally deleted a space between a closing quote and the
following word. I can't easily repair this because the word following
the closing quote is not the same every time. I was hoping I could
use the spellchecker to pick these up, which would make fixing the
problem quicker than doing it as I come up against each occurrence of
this. Ah well, will just have to hope I find them all manually.
