Can't that be already done with Plus' word filter?

You just have to get that list into Plus, though...

anyone know where that list is then??

that's not hard, but good luck to import that list

It wouldn't be hard... in fact it would be pretty easy, you wouldn't be able to check it without a command /spell ect.. and you would have to have another window for spelling correction/errors ect..
You.. wouldn’t need to load the list if you just imported the text.. blah i know what i mean

Anyways.. its possible if someone is willing to make it

The tick options at the top are wonderful, but they cant be done by using word filter.

I've got the list in a word document, but it's too big to attach to this and I don't have a host, anyone feel like sticking it on their site if I e-mail it to em?

Nevermind, zipping it compressed more than I thought.

Ah yeah, true, I was talking about the word replacement.

BTW, ddunk, I think you are able to attach more than 500kb here.

It gave me a limit of 250 , either way, can anyone think of a way of  to integrate the autocorrect into Plus! ?

Well, let's break this up:

Words list autocorrect:
This can already be implemented into Plus with the word filter. Maybe someone can just make a .reg file to import all those MSWord words into Msgplus.

It can't be put into Plus out of the box, because that list is only for English.

Also could be done in a plugin, but recoding the whole word filter is stupid.

Somebody, make that a .reg

Autocorrect options (capitalise, etc.)
This would be very useful, and I think it could be made as a plugin as well. If patchou implemented it (without the days/months things because of multilanguage), it would be great anyway .

Cool list!

I felt like having some fun with it, so I converted it to a .reg file that can be imported into MsgPlus.

Instructions
1. Download and unzip the attachment.
2. Open the AutoCorrect.reg file in a text editor (Notepad should do) and use the find/replace feature to replace "me@example.com" with your address.
3. While you're replacing, you might want to change the dodgy MS Word apostrophes (ASCII 146 ?) with regular ones (ASCII 39 ').
4. Exit Messenger (I dunno if it's necessary, but probably safer).
5. Merge contents of the edited AutoCorrect.reg into your registry (double-click file or right-click and select "Merge").
6. Restart Messenger and check the Plus! Preferences to see if the strings were imported successfully.

Warnings
- This is experimental. Use it at your own risk. I have tested the importing, but have not sent any test messages because I don't have any contacts online.
- Update: Some other users have confirmed that it works good, so don't be too afraid to use it.
- Back up your MsgPlus! settings before trying this. All existing word filter strings will be overwritten.

Update: New version released; fixed a bug that created a blank entry.
