[Geany-Users] spell check; personal dictionary words

[r.rudolph at mnet-online.de]

hello Mr. Troeger,

that's so cool!!

It would be good to add some kind of text below in 
https://plugins.geany.org/spellcheck.html, so other users are informed 
there:

Personal dictionary words
/home/<username>/.config/enchant/
Previously added dictionary words can be found in those files. Words can 
be added there, changed and deleted directly in any editor.


With kind regards
Ralf
