Would it be possible to:
- add a button to save the current word list to a file, preferably with the counts comma separated, but without would be more than adequate.
I've tried ctrl+a, ctrl+c but that didn't work (nor did I really expect it to) - but I'd prefer a button and that would be more obvious to other users. - add two options to the word list context menu
- Change to the suggested word - assuming the topmost in the suggested list is correct, which it often is.
- Copy word to clipboard, I know ctrl+c works but...
I navigate my way down the list with the down arrow key, on a Windows keyboard the context menu key is almost adjacent to the down arrow key, so I use the context menu to Ignore, Add... and Find... -- so why not Change... and Copy...
- Change to the suggested word - assuming the topmost in the suggested list is correct, which it often is.
- add a button (and/or word list context menu item) to clear ignored words, there's an unassigned keyboard shortcut to do it, but... too hard to remember them all :)
I have four Sigil-like spell checkers, the others are -- calibre editor, Notepad++ and Epub Tools. None of them, Sigil's unassigned kb short aside, seem to have an easy way to do this - AFAIK, they all require one to exit and restart the spell checker to reinstate the Ignored word list.
In texts with many Proper Names I initially ignore them all and deal with rest. After which I return to the Proper Names, validating them isn't just a matter of spelling, it's also a matter of being factually correct - e.g. Stewart and Stuart are not the same name, and in a political-history context it really matters which one is used ;) - add a feature deal to better deal with misplaced hyphens. If a mispelt word has a hyphen - eg 'con-sidered' - then if removal of the hyphen yields a valid word - i.e. 'considered' - then offer that word as the first choice in the list of suggestions.
As I said elsewhere it's currently ninth in the list - I appreciate that's the doing of hunspell. And as I've also said elsewhere the apparently misplaced hyphen is sometimes deliberate - automatic removal would thwart the author's intent.
