PostPosted: Thu Sep 18, 2003 8:26 am    Post subject: kile and spell correction Reply with quote

Hi!

I am using kile to write my latex files and i am quite happy with the editor.

But i am not able to use the spell checker in a productive way since he complains about every single latex keyword. I am wondering why, since ispell offers an special option for latex files.
Has anyone an idea how i can teach kile spell checker not to complain about latex keywords?

And another issue:
There is a menu entry HELP -> LATEX REFERENCE. When i try to use it i get an "File not Found" message. I know it was working in an earlier version of kile (i am using 1.5.2) and i found it quite handy. How can i fix this?

Thanks in advance,
stan

Looks like this bug.

EDIT: This bug is about the spellcheck issue. I have no idea about the help document (I don't have kile installed right now).

Indeed. I didn't notice this bug report. What i don't like about the bug report is the following part :wink: :

This is a bug in the kspell libraries. It is fixed, but you'll have to upgrade
to KDE 3.2 and kile-1.6 once both are released (I'm not sure if the bug is
fixed for KDE 3.1.3 or 3.1.4).

looks like it will take a while before i can use spell correction from within kile, since i didn't find a kspell entry in the kde change logs :cry:

regards,
stan

The problem of the LaTeX reference not working is a problem with the current ebuild of of kile (1.5.2). Has anyone solved it?

there is now an ebuild in bugs.gentoo.com for kile 1.6 beta 2. Here is a link. It at least solves the LaTeX reference problem.

I had the same complaint, and this is how I fixed it:

(note that this might subtly break your ispell capabilities elsewhere, but I don't use ispell for anything than spellchecking latex documents)

Code:

# mv /usr/bin/ispell /usr/bin/ispell.true

then create /usr/bin/ispell like this:
Code:

#!/bin/bash
/usr/bin/ispell.true $1 $2 $3 $4 $5


the "-t" option tells ispell to use "Latex mode", so it doesn't check latex commands, but it checks between braces and all. Of course, this assumes that you use ispell for spellchecking within kile. I think aspell has latex mode too, if you like it.
