4. Icon Themes
--------------
Claws has support for different icon sets. Several icon sets can be
- downloaded from http://claws.sylpheed.org/themes.php
+ downloaded from http://www.claws-mail.org/themes.php
You will need to create a directory called 'themes' in your config
directory, unpack them into this directory, and then use the interface
to select them, /Configuration/Preferences/Display/Themes
This interface can also be used to install new themes.

-
-5. Spell Checking
------------------
- a. Requirements
- b. Configuration and installation
- c. Usage
- d. Known problems
-
- a. Requirements
- ---------------
-
- The spell checker in Sylpheed-Claws requires the GNU/aspell library
- (http://www.gnu.org/software/aspell), version 0.50 or newer.
-
- You also need the dictionaries. Check GNU/aspell home page for how
- to download and install them.
- NB: The old dictionaries used by the old aspell will not work.
- b. Configuring Claws
- --------------------
-
- Spell checking is enabled automatically if the aspell executable is
- found. If it is in unusual places, use '--with-aspell-prefix' to state
- the path to the aspell executable. E.g., if aspell's full path is
- /foo/bar/bin/aspell, then use:
-
- ./configure --with-aspell-prefix=/foo/bar
-
- The '--with-aspell-prefix=PREFIX' option will let the configure
- script search for includes and libraries in PREFIX/include and PREFIX/lib.
-
- You can also manually specify the includes and libraries path by using
- either following options:
-
- --with-aspell-includes=/foo/bar/include
-
- and/or
-
- --with-aspell-libs=/rab/oof/lib
-
- as appropriate.
-
- The configure script summarizes the options compiled in. Check that
- it lists 'GNU/aspell = yes'.
-
- Then proceed as usual, with 'make' and 'make install'.
-
- c. Usage
- --------
-
- After successful compiling, you need to tell Sylpheed-Claws where your
- dictionaries reside. The configure script should have found it, but in
- case it did not, run 'aspell config dict-dir' on the shell to get the
- path to the dictionaries.
-
- Then run Sylpheed and go to /Configuration/Preferences/Compose/Spell Checking.
- Check the box 'Enable spell checker' and use the directory selector 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. Then, you should
- be able to select your default dictionary.
-
- When composing, misspelled words are highlighted. Click on any
- highlighted word with the right mouse button to get a list of
- 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 your
- personal dictionary to learn it. The next entries are the suggested words.
- The first 15 suggestions can be accessed by 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). Aspell has a 'learn from mistake'
- function that can be used by pressing the MOD1 key and selecting the
- suggestion (with the keyboard or with the mouse). See GNU/aspell manual
- ยง6.3 for an explanation of this feature (also called 'replacement storing').
-
- 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.
- Finally, you can change the suggestion mode, and the learn from
- misktakes feature.
-
- 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.
-
-
-6. Quick Search with extended search
+5. Quick Search with extended search
------------------------------------
Quick Search, with its powerful Extended search function,
enables searching through folder's messages.
Extended Search allows one to define criteria that messages must
have in order to match and be displayed in the summary view pane.
Search types titled From, Subject and To are self explanatory.
- Search type extended allows one to use Sylpheed's powerful
+ Search type extended allows one to use Claws Mail's powerful
filtering engine to select messages. Examples:
from regexpcase "foo"
- subject regexp "Bug" & to regexp "sylpheed-claws"
+ subject regexp "Bug" & to regexp "claws-mail"
Additionally, it is possible to use simpler yet equally
powerfull patterns for message selections. Mutt users will
h S messages which contain header S
i S messages which contain S in Message-Id header
I S messages which contain S in inreplyto header
+ k # messages which are marked with color #
L locked messages
n S messages which are in newsgroup S
N new messages
Sg # messages whose size is greater than #
Ss # messages whose size is smaller than #
t S messages which have been sent to S
+ tg S messages with tags containing S
+ tagged messages which are tagged
T marked messages
U unread messages
x S messages which contain S in References header
+ x "cmd args" messages returning 0 when passed to command
+ - %F is message file
y S messages which contain S in X-Label header
+ & logical AND operator
+ | logical OR operator
+ ! or ~ logical NOT operator
+ % case sensitive search
+
+ all filtering expressions are allowed
+
# means number
S means regexp string
f foo & ~s bar messages from foo that do not have bar in thesubject
-7. Custom toolbar
+6. Custom toolbar
-----------------
/Configuration/Preferences/Customize Toolbars lets you define the
toolbar you want. The configuration dialog enables you to set an icon,
an appropriate text, and map an action to it. Actions to choose
- from are predefined. You can also have your "Sylpheed-Claws Actions"
