[Github-comments] [geany/geany] Spell Check dictionaries problem (#1627)

[volcik]

I have encountered Spell Checking plugin awkward setup behaviour.  It comes down to proper config however - so It is **solved** but it is problematic because there is ambiguous information on how to setup it.

1st
as explained in here:  https://plugins.geany.org/spellcheck.html

> Note: if you are using Enchant 2.0 or later (the library used by the SpellCheck plugin), you need to move the dictionaries into a subfolder called "hunspell" in the directory you created above. To check which Enchant version you are using, check "Help->Debug Messages" in Geany and find the appropriate log message telling about the Enchant version. 

Files need to be in the _hunspell_ directory

2nd
I've downloaded .dic and .afc  but I had to substitute dash for underscore in their filenames

ex:
> en-GB.aff -> en_GB.aff
> en-GB.dic -> en_GB.dic

after that I've put both of these in
> C:\Programs\Geany\dict\hunspell

_dict_ -is a newly created folder, for my own convenience

3rd
In geany spell checker plugin preferences however I had to point to 
> C:\Programs\Geany\dict

and NOT to

> C:\Programs\Geany\dict\hunspell

in order to spell checker to detect **en_GB**
