The "…their custom…" led me astray

(Ideally, .dic_delta entries should also have morphology codes, but simple word lists will also work.)

For example, if you convert en_US.dic to en_US.bdic and en_US.dic_delta contains the following entries:

Code:
BetterRed
chillax
PageEdit will offer "BetterRed" and "chillax" as spelling suggestions. (It'd be relatively easy to write a script for adding a user dictionary to a .bdic file during conversion with qwebengine_convert_dict.)
- but don't do anything on my behalf. I was merely passing on anticipatory observations.

If PageEdit or one of the epub editors 'spots' a spelling mistake that needs fixing I do it in the originating DOCX not the ePub. Word is still my primary spell checker, despite its even clumsier than it used to be UI :lol:
