Hello,
I don't know if this is the right spot to ask this. But maybe some KDE
developer could look in the the following suggestion.
I'm a dyslectic person: and that means I got diffuculties with correct
spelling but also making correct sentences. However many people who
correct my papers notice I always make the same flaws. Now would it be
possible to make a gramer correction on basis of these returning flaws.
There should be some sort of private rule book where the computer checks
automaticaly specifical for the flaws a dyslectic person makes. I should
be able to configure the gramer checker in to my needs.
Notice, that every dyslectic person makes some specifik mistakes. He/she
would then be able to fine tune the gramer correction.
Also, it would realy be nice to have a fast word look-up. I can imagine
a box ik Kword that does a fast lookup of the word thats typed. So I can
know that the spelling is refers to the correct meaning. The mouse
should only have to hover above a word to start the lookup. A small box
below on the screen should then give the meaning.
Often I have to look up. Was it chose or choise, choose. Of, Off, now or
know... Especialy for dyslectic people who's native language isn't
English. This isn't a trivial thing to do!
