I'm using Ubuntu Linux 6.06 and the included OpenOffice 2.0.2, where, for writing in Swedish, the spellchecking dictionary is very poor, hyphenation seems to be broken, and a thesaurus is missing (greyed out in the menu). Some documentation talks about grammar checking, but I haven't found this in the menues.
I'm not here to complain, but to learn how I can help to improve this situation. To this end, I've just signed up for the mailing lists at sv.openoffice.org. But I'd also like to see some statistics on how well other languages are doing. In short, I don't only want Swedish to be good, I also want to beat the Danes. :-) I know there are German and Danish projects to develop free thesauri that can be used in OpenOffice, but how do you compare the sizes or quality of the dictionaries, rule sets, and thesauri for different languages? Over at http://qa.openoffice.org/localized/status.html there are charts for which languages have been built on which platforms. Is there any similar diagram that shows the included functionality and overall quality of the support for each language? Is this a question for native-lang or for lingucomponent? -- Lars Aronsson ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) Aronsson Datateknik - http://aronsson.se --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
