Overview

The NetSpell project is a spell checking engine written entirely in managed C# .net code. NetSpell's suggestions for a misspelled word are generated using phonetic (sounds like) matching and ranked by a typographical score (looks like). NetSpell supports multiple languages and the dictionaries are based on the OpenOffice Affix compression format. The library can be used in Windows or Web Form projects. The download includes an English dictionary with dictionaries for other languages available for download on the project web site. NetSpell also supports user added words and automatic creation of user dictionaries. The package includes a dictionary build tool to build custom dictionaries.

Dictionaries

NetSpell dictionaries are based on the OpenOffice dictionary format. You can use the Dictionary build tool to convert OpenOffice dictionaries to the NetSpell format. OpenOffice dictionaries can be downloaded here: http://lingucomponent.openoffice.org/dictionary.html

Check spelling in game

Hi, I want to use this to check the spelling inside my game, so I don't need the window that pops up. Is there any way to prevent it form appearing?

License of this library

Add pt_PT dictionary

Hi,

I would like to add pt_PT dictionary to your list, to make it available for Family Tree Maker (FTM).

I tried to find an executable for your DictionaryBuild tool, but no luck. Only found a bunch of files that I don´t understand.

Could you please indicate how to proceed to a non-developer?
I could then fork and create a pull request, if it is how it's done...

Here is an OpenOffice dictionary I have on my repository, with the rest of my ongoing work on a translation memory/collection of tools for Portugal.

Best regards,
Pedro

NOT an issue , but an improvement : load / save user words

it would be nice to give the user the ability to manage the user words by his own.
the following implementation works.
the new code is between >>> and <<<

public class WordDictionary : System.ComponentModel.Component
{
...

// >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
public delegate string [] LoadUserWordsDelegate () ;
public delegate void SaveUserWordsDelegate ( string [] Words ) ;

public LoadUserWordsDelegate LoadUserWords { set ; get ; }
public SaveUserWordsDelegate SaveUserWords { set ; get ; }
// <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

public WordDictionary()
{
InitializeComponent();
// >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
LoadUserWords = null ;
SaveUserWords = null ;
// <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
}

	    private void LoadUserFile()
	    {
		    // load user words
		    _userWords.Clear();

      // quit if user file is disabled
		    if(!this.EnableUserFile) return;

// >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
if ( LoadUserWords != null )
{
string [] Words = LoadUserWords () ;
foreach ( string Word in Words )
_userWords.Add(Word, Word);
}
else
{
// <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
// original code
}
}

	    private void SaveUserFile()
	    {

		    // quit if user file is disabled
		    if(!this.EnableUserFile) return;

// >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
if ( SaveUserWords != null )
{
List < string > Words = new List < string > () ;
foreach (string tempWord in _userWords.Keys)
Words . Add ( tempWord ) ;
SaveUserWords ( Words . ToArray () );
}
else
{
// <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
// original code
}
}
}
