If you open the context menu of the spell check, as described in the last section, an additional entry appears for German words spelled in the old way: the Info command. This command contains additional options and shows information about the rule governing the change in the word's spelling under the German spelling reform.
This command's dialog box provides the following functions:
Item |
Function |
List of |
All spellings that are correct according to the spelling reform are displayed here. If you click on one and then click on the Change button, Write replaces the word in the text with it. |
Change |
This option lets you correct the word after you have chosen the correct spelling from the list of suggestions. |
|
If Write ever makes an incorrect suggestion, you can enter the correct spelling in the Change to field manually. |
SmartText |
This option lets you define a SmartText entry. For more information, see SmartText. |
Ignore |
This option instructs Write to ignore this spelling error. |
Ignore all |
This option instructs Write to ignore all further instances of this word. |
|
Note: Write only remembers the list of ignored words temporarily. When you exit Write, it forgets it. If you want Write to learn words permanently, use the command Add instead: |
Add |
This option instructs Write to add the word to the user dictionary. |
|
Write remembers such words permanently; they will no longer be underlined in blue (see note!) |
Close |
This option closes the dialog box without applying a change. |
Note: Use the command Add only for those German words underlined in blue that are actually spelled correctly according to the new German spelling rules. If, on the other hand, you allow the addition of words with old spellings, rather than new spellings, you will be supplying Write with incorrectly spelled words!
