The Custom Dictionary

The Custom dictionary allows you to add a list of custom words to your spell checker's vocabulary.
This is useful for adding words specific to a business, application or website.

Modifying the Custom Dictionary

The custom dictionary file is "custom.txt" within the JavaScriptSpellCheck/Dictionaries directory of your website. 

To add words to your custom dictionary, simply place a list of up to 100,000 words, each on separate lines into this file. 

For significantly improved performance, please sort these words in alphabetical (ANSI code) order.  If you do not have a tool to do this, then EditPlus is an excellent choice.  For performance issues, it is best to remove any spaces from the file.

Example contents of custom.txt:

Common Typographic Errors

The Spell Checker has an awareness of common typos.  This is located in a file called "CommonTypos.txt" within the International directory of your installation. This file can be amended by adding / removing entries (per language) in the format:

typo--->suggestion

The entries must be put in in exact alphabetical ASCII character code order.
