• GoldED Spellcheck

    From Kevin Miller@1:267/585 to All on Saturday, February 20, 2021 12:21:27
    Greets All,

    Thx to everyone who has helped me get over the hump of setting up GoldED. It has been a tremendous help!

    I'm just about finished with this configuration for the exception of the spellcheck function.

    What are my options or any recommendations I should attempt?

    Thx,

    MSSPELL and MYSPELL. I use hunspell on linux, it is compatible with myspell dictionaries.

    I use these keywords, there are more listed in the advanced.cfg.

    SCheckerEnabled Auto
    SCheckerDefLanf en_US

    Must admit over the years I have tried a few times to get it to work but without any success and that was just using English.

    Hello Vincent,

    Must admit over the years I have tried a few times to get it to work
    but without any success and that was just using English.

    I just recently did this. I have hunspell installed so it was as easy as adding the three keywords I mentioned to Mike and pointing the SCheckerDicPath at my hunspell dictionaries.

    On my slackware box both /usr/share/hunspell and /usr/share/myspell/dicts work.

    With Mageia v7 I noticed that starting golded with the checker set in configs it stops until I hit retuen but I cannot see what is the key/s to tell it to do
    a spell check !

    Please advise,

    Hmm.. my golded starts up in the message area list. There is no key to do a spell check. Your spelling is checked as you type. Misspelled words show up as white and other words show up as normal. LGrey in my case.

    I would check the directory you have set for SCheckerDicPath, my /usr/share/hunspell directory has these files amoung others..

    === Cut ===
    en_AU.aff
    en_AU.dic
    en_CA.aff

    en_GB-ise.aff

    en_GB-ize.dic
    en_GB.aff@
    en_GB.dic@
    en_US.aff
    en_US.dic
    === Cut ===

    Also check that your SCheckerDefLang is set to one of the above, I suspect en_GB in your case.

    SCheckerDefLang en_GB
    SCheckerDictPath "/usr/share/hunspell"
    Error Lred on Black
    HIGHLIGHTUNREAD Yes


    Have not set the top line as not sure it is right other than the path is correct for hunspell

    Needless to say it still stops after loading waiting for keyboard entry before going to the echo list area.

    Hello, Kevin!

    Thx to everyone who has helped me get over the hump of setting up
    GoldED. It has been a tremendous help!

    I'm just about finished with this configuration for the exception of
    the spellcheck function.

    What are my options or any recommendations I should attempt?

    I wrote instructions for Russian-speaking users, sorry if the translation is bad.

    = RU.GOLGED (2:6035/3.1) =====================================================
    Msg : 857 of 1782 Loc

    Everything is in Russian here

    ===
    Golded shouldn't be too old. For example, in the 2007 versions, the check spelling doesn't work yet. I also didn't check GoldEd-NSF, so I recommend updating it and replacing it with the normal GoldEd+ from the main branch: https://github.com/golded-plus
    As a bonus, you will get the fact that many hotkeys for Linux/mac are fixed there.

    Next, you need the MySpell dictionaries. Semyon Panevin has a lot of them: http://ftp.velo36.ru/pub/freq/myspell.tgz

    Unpack them and put them, for example, in the DICT folder in the golded directory. The rest
    depends on which of the dictionaries you need (you can connect several). dictionaries at the same time). I have connected a Russian dictionary with an "e" and American
    English. To do this, I wrote in the config:
    SCheckerEnabled Auto
    SCheckerDefLang ru_RU_yo en_US
    SCheckerDicPath \fido\golded\dict\

    Replace the path in the last directive with your own.

    For languages other than English, you need to connect the corresponding transcoding tables. For Russian, you need two files:
    866_koi.chs
    koi_866.chs
    You can download it from me: https://yadi.sk/d/yXG6_bvkHQTxz
    Put them, for example, in the XLAT folder in the golded directory and write them in the config:

    XLATPATH \fido\GOLDED\XLAT\ ; fix it on your way
    XLATCHARSET KOI8-R CP866 koi_866.chs
    XLATCHARSET CP866 KOI8-R 866_koi.chs

    It remains to determine the color that will highlight the errors. I have it spelled
    out in gedcolor. cfg:
    COLOR SCHECKER Error LRed on Black ;the color of the selection of the wrong word

    If you don't have a separate gedcolor.cfg file, then you can add this directive to the main or any other connected golded config.

    The main drawback is that all words with a hyphen are considered incorrect. Second - there is no
    way to work with a custom dictionary (although you can manually edit dictionaries).

    Next is to mistype some words and see what happens and with my eye sight that is easy next will be to see why backspace move forwards one char and leaves a '.'.

    Seems it is working well it changes the word typed if in error but does not seem to show possible correct word unless there is a special key to

    ShellToDos(): command is empty, message is: "SpellChecker: " !

    Looks like it tries to load another command. Sometimes the sequence of the keywords is important. Maybe you could create a minimum config file and use that for testing with golded -C <configfile>. And sometimes golded -FF does the trick.

    Hello Vincent,

    Try F9 from the editor.

    Does nothing

    In my case it brings up a list of possible spellings to choose from.

    Other than (if cursor is in bad word moving cursor to begining of
    line (i.e., 'begining' .

    I don't have a goldkeys.cfg but I see..

    F9 EDITspellcheck

    in the example goldkeys.cfg. If you have a goldkeys.cfg you may need
    to adjust it.

    Just added F9 ... etc but golded stops on it abnd goldkeys doesnot have that one but has :

    ^F5 EDITdelltword
    ^T EDITdelrtword
    ^F6 EDITdelrtword

    Which I am assuming the last one means Cntl/F6

    but that does nothing.

    Bye the bye my golded shows version at the bottom of right screen as ^Golded+/LNX 1.1.5

    Hi Vincent!

    @S EDITSCheckerMenu
    Put that in but made no change other than Golded pauses waiting for
    return so guess it does not like that line.

    Do you have the other options set discussed previously?

    SCheckerEnabled Auto
    SCheckerDefLang en_US de_AT
    SCheckerDicPath "/usr/local/etc/golded+/dict"

    And naturally the dictionary files in the DicPath directory.

    Done that but F9 does not seem to do a lot just move the cursor back to beginning of the line that only hold one word miss-typed.

    I give up:(

    There is nothing that specifies the name of the spell check program though as far as I can see unless it is a default.

    Looks OK to me.
    No clue why it is not working for you.

    There is nothing that specifies the name of the spell check program
    though as far as I can see unless it is a default.

    That is because golded only uses the dictionary.
    If I type typ then typ is shown in red.

    Color SChecker Error LRed on Black

    When I press the Spellcheck hotkey on typ it gives me alternatives like type ;)

    Hello Vincent,

    Done that but F9 does not seem to do a lot just move the cursor back
    to beginning of the line that only hold one word miss-typed.

    I give up:(

    Don't give up.. :)

    I wonder if your goldkeys.cfg has more than one F9 and is confused about what you want F9 to do? I don't use a goldkeys.cfg here. I wonder if you move that file out of the way if it will work better for you?

    I have only these keywords in use for spell checking here, all in golded.cfg.


    ==== Begin: "vince.txt" ====
    SCheckerEnabled Auto ; check while typing
    SCheckerDefLang en_CA ; MYSPELL, CA English
    SCheckerDicPath /usr/share/hunspell
    EDITSPELLCHECK /usr/bin/hunspell @file
    COLOR SCHECKER ERROR LRed on Black
    ==== End: "vince.txt" ====

    The last line changes the colour of misspelled words and make it easier to see.

    To get rid of any other configuration you could create an independent test config for golded. Create an empty directory, cd into it, create a directory "netmail", start ged with "gedlnx -INSTALL".

    You would have to enter your usersame first, then your fidonet address, then the path to your netmail folder, which is "./netmail" because we created netmail above and the path and filename of your not existing areafile like "./areas.bbs". The -INSTALL function would create a fresh golded.cfg file in your actual directory.

    You can edit the file before the first start, because areafile is not required for a minimal config. You will have a golded.cfg like this:

    USERNAME Test
    ADDRESS 9:9/9
    AREADEF NETMAIL "Netmail" 0 Net Opus ./netmail
    #AREAFILE AreasBBS ./areas.bbs

    You can start that with

    gedlnx -C./golded.cfg

    and you will have clean minimal configuration where you could test the spellchecker configuration without any previous re-configurations.
