I have the "Russian Hunspell spellchecking dictionary" extension
installed (1.0.20131101), which says it's current. For English, I just
use the built-in dictionary, with a few terms I've added.
Under Edit | Preferences | Appearance | Spelling, the pull-down list
offers:
English/United States
Russian/Russian Federation
I choose "English/United States," but SeaMonkey regularly changes the
setting without notice or prompting to "Russian/Russian Federation." I
can tell because email composition windows suddenly flag everything as
misspelled, and input boxes in the browser do the same.
I could understand if it did this when I visited a Russian site or
displayed an email with Cyrillic content. But that's not what's
happening. It just does it randomly (AFAICT), for no apparent reason.
So I change it back to "English/United States," and after a little while
SM overrules my pref and sets it to "Russian/Russian Federation" again.
The interval is often only a few minutes, and usually less than an hour.
My language acceptance settings at Edit | Preferences | Browser |
Languages are:
English [en]
Russian [ru]
Korean [ko]
in that order.
Any idea what's happening, and how I can get the setting to stick until
and unless /I personally/ decide to change it? If it helps any, the pref
in about:config at spellchecker.dictionary is en-US by default, or ru-RU
(user set) when SM goes rogue. But this user never set it to ru-RU,
that's a figment of SM's imagination.
Sounds like the answer might lie with the author of the extension.
