To keep it simple, the algorithm would only have to accept curly right apostrophes in the middle of words. |
Actually, that reminds me of another Spellchecking bug that has been bothering me for a while.
I attached a Sample EPUB to show the problem.
Sample Code:
Quote:
<p>The draft which TJ submitted to Hamilton is in Ford, VI, 7-69, with Hamilton’s notes and TJ’s comments on them.</p>
<p>The draft which TJ submitted to Hamilton is in Ford, VI, 7-69, with Hamilton’s notes and TJ's comments on them.</p>

In Code View, you can see both TJ’s (smart quote) + TJ's (dumb quote) is marked as a misspelled word.
If you Right Click on the first one + Ignore... nothing happens.
If you Right Click on the second one + Ignore... both lose their red squigglies.
This is pretty frustrating. I have a Keyboard Shortcut set to the "Ignore" function, and it becomes painstaking to work through larger books, because the "smart quote" words never get properly Ignored.
This is an issue on Windows (not too sure about other OSes).
