+ mkdir ~/.sylpheed/themes

+ Preferences.
+
+* user definable actions
+ Actions can be executed on message text view, or on the message's file.
+ To configure new actions use Configuartion->Actions. Your actions are

c. Usage
--------
+ NOTE: if you upgraded from 0.7.0claws, please reselect your default
+ dictionary in the preferences.
+
After successful compiling, you need to tell sylpheed where your
dictionaries reside. First run 'pspell-config pkgdatadir' on the
shell to get their path.
Then run sylpheed and go to Configuration -> Common preferences ->
- Compose. Check the box 'Enable spell checker (EXPERIMENTAL)' and
+ Spell Checker. Check the box 'Enable spell checker (EXPERIMENTAL)' and
use the file selector ('...' button) to select the path where the
dictionaries reside. Within the file selector, go to that directory
and select *any* file in the file lists. Click ok. You should then
When composing, misspelled words are highlighted. Click on any
highlighted word with the right mouse button to get a list of
- suggestions. You can also accept the highlighted word to the
- session dictionary (equivalent to an 'ignore' option of other spell
- checker), or you can add it to you personal dictionary.
+ suggestions. The first entry of the menu just displays the unknown
+ word. Selecting "Accept in this session" (or hitting MOD1-Space,
+ where MOD1 is usually the ALT key), will ignore this word and accept
+ it in this message. Selecting the next entry "Add to dictionary", which
+ is bound to MOD1-Enter combination will add the unknown word to the
+ dictionary to learn it. The next entries are the suggested words.
+ The first 15 suggestions can be accessed typing one of the first letters
+ of latin alphabet (if this does not suit your language, please send
+ a mail to melvin.hadasht@free.fr). If you are using an aspell
+ dictionary, you can use its 'learn from mistake' feature, by pressing
+ the MOD1 key and selecting the suggestion (with the keyboard or with
+ the mouse). See pspell manual ยง4.7.1 for an explanation of this
+ feature.
If you click with the right mouse button everywhere else, or if you
shift-right-click even on a misspelled word, you get the
configuration menu. 'Check all' highlights all misspelled words.
With this menu, you can also change the dictionary while editing.
- You can change the suggestion mode and toggle the learn from
- misktakes 'feature' (useful only with aspell).
+ FInally, you can change the suggestion mode misktakes 'feature'
+ (useful only with aspell).
+
+ Spell checking can also be done using keyboard shortcuts. In the
+ "Edit" menu of the compose window, there are two menus "Check backwards
+ misspelled word" and "Forward to next misspelled word". Add to them
+ appropriate keyboard shortcuts. "Check backwards misspelled word"
+ checks backwards from cursor position for the first misspelled word.
+ If it finds one, it displays the suggestions lists which can be handled
+ with the keyboard as described before. When the suggestion menu is
+ closed, the cursor returns to its original position to be able to
+ continue editing. The "Forward to next misspelled word" do the same
+ thing in the other direction but moves the cursor at the end of the
+ misspelled word. This way, you can spell check easily a whole message
+ starting from its beginning and using the "Forward to next misspelled
+ word" keyboard short cut.
