--- Comment #24 from neg...@negora.com --- Hello: I've done some tests of the automatic spell checking in Kate, in different distributions, using the "British English" dictionary. And these are my results: Kubuntu 16.04 ..................... Sonnet 5.18.0 ......... Behaves buggy Kubuntu 16.04 + Backports PPA ..... Sonnet 5.22.0 ......... Behaves buggy Fedora 24 ......................... Sonnet 5.22.0 ......... It (almost) does not work Manjaro 2016-06-25 ................ Sonnet 5.23.0 ......... It (almost) does not work Where I say "Behaves buggy", I mean the following: Right words are not marked ............................................. OK Wrong words (like "ddff") are marked ................................... OK Wrong words that look like right words (such as "copolo") are marked ... WRONG So, if I input words like "tetete" or "macoco", which doesn't exist in English, the spell checker accepts them. It's really weird. Where I say "It (almost) does not work", I mean that it marks some words randomly, in an erratic way. So in this state, this functionality is useless. In all cases I've installed all the available dictionaries of the language (myspell, aspell, hunspell). Changing the font hasn't had any effect in my case. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
