Diction

Diction allows you to specify a list of words to auto-correct as you type.

There's no in-game configuration, so all words need to be added via words.lua, which is simple enough. I've included some example words from this list to get you started, feel free to add your own.

This addon is primarily aimed at those people who always make the same spelling mistake, even though they know it's wrong, and as such is meant to be a very lightweight approach to specify the correct spellings of such words.

The only problem I had with it was that there was no easy way for two people to merge their word lists without introducing duplicates. I wrote a small C# program to do this automatically, and have PM'ed one of the admins of this site to see if I can host it here (it's an .exe, but I'm more than willing to put the source out there). As soon as I get word from them, I'll put it up. Edit: It's approved: Get the Diction Word List Merger. Last edited by camperdave : 06-22-2009 at 02:30 PM.

I'll enable lua errors and check again later, maybe there will be some clue. And yes, thanks, my words list does look like the one you posted, I just copied the snippet I added. In total there are the default words and the ones I added in the correct formatting. Thanks Edit: I got it sorted out, it was an error on my side. Sorry for the confusion.

I'm using Prat myself, and I haven't had any problems. What version are you using? If you're using the latest version (v1.0.2), your words.lua file should look like this:

Code:

Diction_Words = {
	["isnt"] = "isn't",
	["wasnt"] = "wasn't",
	["havent"] = "haven't",
	["didnt"] = "didn't",
	["weild"] = "wield",
	["couldnt"] = "couldn't",
}

Thanks for the tip, I'll make this change in v1.0.1, and indeed "lightening" is a word, an oversight on my part!

High Five A Kobold Labourer Forum posts: 0 File comments: 27 Uploads: 2	I suggest you replace line 27-30 with: Code: if current:find(" "..k.."$") then msg = current:gsub(" "..k.."$", " "..v) ChatFrameEditBox:SetText(msg) elseif current:find("^"..k.."$") then msg = current:gsub(k, v) ChatFrameEditBox:SetText(msg) end That will make it only check the final word, getting rid of the paladindindins, etc. Also, FYI, there is a word "lightening".

That is, add a space after each word, the only problem with this solution is if "pala" is the last word in the sentence, you'll need to add an extra space in order to replace it, otherwise it should work.

Ah, thanks didn't think of that

Similarly, as with the "pala " example, " lock" won't be replaced if it's at the start of the sentence, unless a space is added before it. Last edited by oomp : 06-09-2009 at 03:47 PM.
