[gaim-migrate @ 12428] " Autocorrect in gaim... um... sucks. The problem is that the correction only happens AFTER you send a message. This means that you don't actually know what message you are sending until it is sent. Horrible. My new patch works AS YOU TYPE with the following rules: * You must be typing, not pasting in text. If you paste in the and there is a rule to correct the to the, it won't be corrected. This is because it would be impossible to go back and check all the text. * Check whole words ONLY. Partial words don't count. * If the dictionary word has capital letters in it, match only words with that capitalization. (FPT -> FTP doesn't match ftp.) * If the dictionary word doesn't have capital letters, preserve the capitalization the user used. (The code assumes three possible capitalization schemes: ALLCAPS, lowercase, and Proper.) Unless the solution has capital letters. In that case, force the capitalization used in the solution. * A word may have quote characters in it and still be a word. * If the user immediately hits the backspace key after a correction, undo the correction." --xkan " This patch is based off xkahn's work available at: http://sf.net/support/tracker.php?aid=300235 Most of the changes are his. I just changed his formatting to match the rest of Gaim more closely. Also, I made a couple coding style changes. The two biggest changes I made were: 1) I added some hash stuff to load_config. This removes duplicates. 2) I imported my list of text replacement strings as the default list in addition to xkahn's list. My list consisted primarily of the autocorrect entries from my copy of OpenOffice.org Writer. There were a few things I've added by hand. (For those familiar with my comments in #gaim, this list does NOT include anything like a pwn -> own replacement. If people want to talk like that, I'm not going to stop them. This list should be useful to anyone.) I also fixed a memory leak in load_config. A GtkListStore stores its own copy of strings, so there is no need to g_strdup them when appending to the GtkListStore. When I get a chance, I need to make it give an error if you try to set a duplicate "You type" word in the preferences. Otherwise, this patch should take care of everything. I would recommend considering this patch over xkahn's because it's a direct superset of his patches. However, I want to be very clear that most of the changes in this patch are his and he deserves the credit for them. " --rlaager committer: Tailor Script <[e-mail]>
