Hi, Mozilla has announced changes in the way Firefox add-ons will work in the future[1]. In the long term (> 1 year), this will also affect LanguageToolFx, our add-on for Firefox. We won't be able anymore to access the user's personal dictionary, so spell checking won't work very well as our add-on would complain about words even though they are in the personal dictionary. Feedback from the community regarding these planned changes has been mostly negative, but I wouldn't assume that this changes the plans.
To keep our add-on working, a feature to access the personal dictionary needs to be added to the new interface. Please vote for this request to increase the chances for such an interface: https://webextensions.uservoice.com/forums/315663-webextension-api-ideas/suggestions/9441342-add-api-to-access-spell-checker Regards Daniel [1] https://blog.mozilla.org/addons/2015/08/21/the-future-of-developing-firefox-add-ons/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Languagetool-devel mailing list Languagetool-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/languagetool-devel
