How to install new dictionaries in Sublime Text 2
I followed the instructions described here to grab an additional dictionary. http://www.sublimetext.com/docs/2/spell_checking.html
From that page we have that:
Sublime Text uses Hunspell for its spell checking support. Additional dictionaries can be obtained from the OpenOffice.org Extension List
So then I go to OpenOffice.org to search for a es-UY dictionary. I found it and then when I downloaded it from http://extensions.services.openoffice.org/en/project/Vero I got a file with a extension of .oxt.
The file name was Vero_es_UY_V208AOC.oxt.
Renamed the downloaded dictionary file from Vero_es_UY_V208AOC.oxt to Vero_es_UY_V208AOC.rar. .rar or .zip have the same effect]
The .oxt file is just a wrapper.
Open the compressed file and extracted the files with the folow extensions .txt, .aff and .dic.
Renamed the folder where you extracted files to for example “Language – Spanish” in my case.
Now go to Sublime Text and open it.
From menu “Preferences > Browse Packages” you can open the directory where all packages are installed
“…/Sublime Text 2/Packages/”.
Inside the above directory copy the directory where you have your extracted files, in my case I copy “Language – Spanish” inside “Packages” directory.
Closed Sublime Text 2 and reopened it. The new dictionary appeared inside “View > Dictionary”
- Enjoy
