I found quite valuable the gtkspell checker embedded in gaim, but when I'm chatting in a different language it comes in the way. This patch adds a new menu in the conv window to let the user change the language of the spell check. It works, but should be considered preliminary. CAVEATS: 1. The code populates the menu from the aspell dictionaries installed on the machine, but I didn't find a way to discover which is the one currently used by gtkspell, so the current selection is only valid *after* the user selects something. 2. gtkspell seems to ignore completely the JARGON concept of aspell, so there are some more dictionaries in the list than what are in fact selectable. 3. The menu should not appear if the spell checker is disabled. Hope you find it useful, as I do. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Mark Doliner (thekingant) Date: 2005-04-24 18:45 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=20979 I'm with Luke--we should wait until gtkspell supports this fully. I don't know what the status of that is... or if it will take any work on our part to implement it. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Alfredo Raul Peña (arpena) Date: 2004-09-06 23:21 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=449873 fair enough ! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Luke Schierer (lschiere) Date: 2004-09-06 19:18 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=28833 i am holding off on this sort of functionality untill the gtkspell 3 release, which we are told by its developer will have an api to make handling these things significantly cleaner and easier. specifically, it will solve your problem of kknowing what is selected. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=300235&aid=1023340&group_id=235 |
