[opensuse] Spelling Knot Werking in KMail
I just knowticed somefing in Kmail. I used to have spell checking enabled by default. I have the ispell dictionary enabled and don't recall changing anything. According to KMail Help... KMail will automatically check the spelling of your message (in HTML mode this currently does not work) and display unknown words using red color. If there are too many unknown words KMail will disable its checking. To select the language used for checking, select View->Dictionary. You can disable automatic spellchecking in the Options menu. To check the spelling of your message using a dialog, select Tools->Spelling.... KMail uses KSpell to check spelling, which is the KDE frontend to the ispell or aspell spelling checker. Note that you may first need to configure the spellchecker using Settings->Spellchecker.... I can do the manual spell checking but it used to to auto spell checking. Any ideas? I'm rully stummpte on tis one. -- kai www.perfectreign.com || www.4thedadz.com www.filesite.org || www.donutmonster.com closing the doors that surround me so no one will ever penetrate complete my retreat just to wait for the day that never comes so i will laugh alone -- kai Free Compean and Ramos http://www.perfectreign.com/?q=node/46 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Yes. This caught me as well not that long ago. The Options menu referred to in the KMail Help is available in the composition window (and only in the composition menu as near as I can tell, although I imagine it is in a config file somewhere). In my case, not only was automatic spellchecking turn off, but for some reason KMail also defaulted to composing all messages as HTML. It took me some time to finally figure out how to turn that feature off (the same options menu in the composition window). -- Don -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Ahh, cleverly set in an options menu (as opposed to the Settings menu) to fool us into writing goofy emails! I have it now. Compose (or forward or reply) email > Options > Automatic Spellchecking. I think it doesn't work when HTML is enabled - at least it said so in the manual. I refuse to write messages in HTML. I recently got into a bit of trouble, when I chastised a department manager for sending a weekly email to all users in HTML. :P -- kai Free Compean and Ramos http://www.grassfire.org/142/petition.asp http://www.perfectreign.com/?q=node/46 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Yeah, I went pawing through the text files in .kde and couldn't find the auto-spellchecking option that is set with the composition window (didn't find it). Somebody please tell us where it is hidden... please?
Thanks. -- Kind regards, M Harris <>< -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

... take a look in ~/.kde/share/config/kmailrc [Composer] . . . autoSpellChecking=false . . . As an aside, the resource file for the tool bar options of composer can be found here... /opt/kde3/share/apps/kmail/kmcomposerui.rc -- Kind regards, M Harris <>< -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
