Last hour I figured out how to do a spell checker, and I did one

You need Office installed to use this.

KNOWN BUGS:
Doesn't work functnally with [c] tags (and other tags).

Enjoy!

How to make emoticons pass through
Type , bring the spellchecker up, and press Add, Done!!

Nice work but it has a lot of bugs
1. Freezes Messenger when sending a message.
2. If you cancel the spell checker it opens word and closes it.
3. If someone doesn't have office? It won't work .

Needs to ignore emoticons too .

1. I might thread this
2. I'm not able to fix
3. It wont work. Mostly people has Word. Without Word I have no API, and writing a spellchecker then is really hard.

use aspell =p

Great idea for a script!
too bad I can't use it though...

will it eventually support OpenOffice in the future??

I don't (didn't) have office installed. I know a spellchecker script was in development using the translation files supplied for use with FireFox.

It does sound like this script has a few bugs that need to be fixed before it'll be used by too many people, or before it's even fully functional. As for colour tags, just add an option to add them to the dictionary using the API. Use a for loop to add "[c="+i+"]" to the dictionary and also add the IRC equivalent as well as closing tags

But still that's just a list of words.

Yeah it freezes, but it stops after some secs.
That delay is not my fault, it's Word

Yes, it's still a list of words, but it's a list that doesn't require using the API for a program, causing WLM to freeze. You can also ship the file with the script so that EVERYBODY that wants to use the script, can.

Nice, too bad it doesn't work.

Oh I think it's working now, but won't use because it's buggy.
