28
+ ==============================================
29
+
30
+ Thunderbird does not properly support the new Mozilla spellchecker API (see bug
31
+ https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=500606). Due to this issue
32
+ the inline spell checker may not be available for the languages supported by
33
+ this extension. Patches to Thunderbird to implement this feature are very
34
+ welcome. Until then there are two known workarounds for this issue:
35
+
36
+ - The safe option:
37
+ Use the "Check spelling" dialog instead of inline spell checker for spell checking.
38
+
39
+ - The dangerous option (MAY BREAK SPELL CHECKING IN OTHER APPLICATIONS):
40
+ Create a fake Hunspell dictionary for your language in order to enable the inline
41
+ spell checker. Empty files will be sufficient. For example to do Finnish spell
42
+ checking on Linux you can run the following command:
43
+
44
+ touch /usr/share/myspell/fi_FI.dic ; touch /usr/share/myspell/fi_FI.aff
You can’t perform that action at this time.
