Hi

This was the last big item left to do. How amazing this huge task has been completed in so few months! Congratulations and thank you.

French

Here is a link for a good French dictionnary in oxt format. Of course it's hunspell all along. It's used by Grammalecte, a grammatical extension to OpenOffice and LibreOffice. It is updated quite frequently. The 5.0.2 version is from January 2014. It works pretty well with the Editor.

Elided forms

Take a word: articulateur. You also can find: l'articulateur. The editor will display it two times, in two separate places once as "articulateur", the other as "l'articulateur" because elided forms seem to be counted as independent words (same for d' and others). It is grammatically the same word.

GUI

Even on a full page window, I can, at most visualize 20 words. I should at least be able to see a healthy 50 and it seems really necessary to be able to narrow the fields.

Several languages together

What exactly should I write and where if I have a book in French with lots of English words inside? I start from here.
