location of hunspell_dictionaries folder (linux)

roger64 · 09-02-2013, 03:56 AM

Hi

One of the great qualities of Sigil is the so convenient use of its hunspell spell-checker dictionary. I just had a look on the several hunspell_dictionaries folders I found on my Linux. Here they are:
~/.local/share/sigil-ebook/sigil/
~/.local/share/data/sigil-ebook/sigil/
~/.local/share/data/Strahinja Markovic/sigil/ (OK an old one)
~/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/Sigil/
/usr/local/share/sigil/

of course, I also have
/usr/share/hunspell

I will make a -late- spring cleaning. What's the one to keep for 0.7.3?

If you used my binary package for installation, the Sigil-included hunspell dictionaries are installed in:
/usr/local/share/sigil/hunspell_dictionaries

Any personal user-added hunspell-type dictionaries will be in:
~/.local/share/sigil-ebook/sigil/hunspell_dictionaries
('Edit'-> 'Preferences'-> 'Open Preferences Location')

Should be the same for any build of 0.7.x where the default install directory wasn't altered.
