BigNoteBox Spelling Pack
by Dukul

More languages for the spellchecker in BigNoteBox.

BigNoteBox comes with English (US and UK). This pack adds the other languages:

• French
• German

What you get

• Red wavy lines under misspelled words as you type, in your own language.
• Right-click a marked word for suggestions, Add to dictionary or Ignore.
• Each note can have its own language. Write your raid plans in German and your guild notes in English: right-click a marked word, then Language, or use the language button on the formatting toolbar.
• German compound words just work. Gildenbank, Questgeber, Drachenschuppenrüstung: the checker splits a long word into the words it is made of, checks every noun with its capital letter, and suggests a fix for the part that is wrong. Prefer it stricter? One setting limits it to the compounds the German dictionary itself allows.

Light on memory

Each language is its own small addon that loads only when you need it, the first time a note is checked in that language. Languages you never use are never loaded.

How to use it

1. Install the pack next to BigNoteBox (version 2.1.0 or later is needed).
2. Open Settings > Modules > Spelling in BigNoteBox. An installed language's flag is in color: click it to check all your notes in that language.
3. Or give one note its own language: right-click a marked word in it, then Language.

Word lists

The dictionaries are made from free, open word lists, with every word form included:

- French: Dictionnaire "Classique" by Olivier R. grammalecte.net, MPL 2.0
- German: igerman98 by Bjoern Jacke, with the frami additions by Franz Michael Baumann LibreOffice dictionaries, GPL 2 or 3

Each language folder carries its word list's license.
