Very cool! Thanks for reporting back.

Do you know if the system hunspell library is available to plugins or not? That might be something to look at. There's a test plugin in the docs directory of the Sigil source (make sure you use the version found in the source at the same tag-level you built) that can be installed/run to test the various pieces of the plugin framework.

I know that Tkinter is not available on Haiku, so plugins that rely on Tkinter for gui features are not going to work, but I had plugins that used PyQt5 working. That test plugin will report which features of the plugin system is working and which are failing. Most will be down to making sure certain python modules are installed, but a few features (including libhunspell) may need some tweaking.
