Adding words to standard.dic and its lacation

[tlcasey100]

I have used gedit to locate all the dictionary's in /usr/share/hunspell but standard.dic is not there so where is it and can it be added to hunspell?

Thanks

Do you mean the 'standard.dic' that comes with Libreoffice and/or Openoffice? I thought that had an internal format, but it does let you create new dictionaries of your own. Perhaps you could create one in Libreoffice, add some words to it and take a look though the file that is produced. I'm afraid I'm not familiar with hunspell so I can't tell you how it'd work with these files.

~/.libreoffice/3/user/wordbook/standard.dic is where it's located, but it's a binary file, not editable with a text editor.

I read somewhere there a way to covert the file to something editable

Could be. I've never tried it, never saw the need. Good luck with it.
