Created attachment 25958 [details] Spellcheck strange behavior
Spellcheck does work, but not the proper way. - Some correct words, even trivial like "de", are shown as not. - It suggests diferent corrections for the same word (see image).
Sounds like I modified the dictionary while set to use UTF-8 which causes those strange chars. I'm beginning to think that UTF-8 is sort of like the Imperial/Metric measuring mess --never to be resolved since everybody has a good reason to stay with what is working for them. :-)) At any rate, the dict is supposed to be in ISO-8859-1 which is still sort of weird, but such is life. At any rate, my apologies for the inconvenience. I'll post as soon as I get it properly converted and working correctly, again. Richard.
You are right Richard, I have downgraded to aprevious dictionary version and now it works fine. Thanks for your work !!
fixed on latest releases
As per desc 7 please resolve this issue as fixed.
