How does the Spellcheck object work?

[Jax]

I've made a Part 2 to that tutorial. This answers ezra and RGB's questions about spell-checking whole sentences, I hope.

[ezra]

thank you for the help it's working fine with english words, i try to load file with hebrew words and it wasn't working.why ?

[Jax]

Alas, it only really supports English.

(Other Latin languages can be used, but I didn't expose the ability to change what letters sound like, although my underlying code does allow).

Sorry.

I remember very long time ago you wanted to make ä Ä ü Ü ö Ö ß available.
But you never did? I don't know...

[ezra]

so what can i do ? :-(

i try to do it with the "list" but it take time to load a file 2.8mb , and with the spellcheck it's fast how do you do this ?

[LB]

List object takes a long time because windows stupidly redraws it every time it changes. You should use the Get Line object instead.

i try the getline object it crash running in win 7 mmfdev2

Gustav,

Yes I remember wanting to do that. In fact, it was you who wanted that wasn't it? I don't think I ever managed to do it though. Is it still a wanted feature?

The problem is that modifiers mean different things in different languages. For instance, ö makes a sort of u-ish sound in German, some sound I don't know Icelandic, and in English it means that it should be said as a different syllable if preceded by another vowel. And I've no idea about languages like Hungarian.

[ezra]

i don't understand i mean why the spellcheck can't do it in hebrew (not the sound) why he can't search the word like he do in english words ?

[Jax]

Spellcheck stores words by how they sound, not by how they are spelt, so that suggestions can be generated.

Have you tried the Dictionary Object? That is just a simple hash table, which is probably more what you want.
