Bug Description
I would like to request that Inkscape will use GtkSpell in such a way that it will use Enchant for spell checking. Enchant is a spell checking wrapper using the spell checker installed on the system. This can be Aspell, Ispell, Myspell, Hunspell and much more.
According to https:/
The changes to the implementation will be minimal, see http://
Benefits of fixing this bug are:
- freedom of choice in spell checker to use (mainly ability to use Hunspell)
- identical spell checking as other applications on the system, also in terms of available dictionaries and personal dictionaries
- dependencies on aspell and aspell-en can be dropped
