Usage with a paragraph of text? #7

Closed oyeanuj closed 7 years ago

oyeanuj commented 7 years ago

Hi @segabor, firstly, thank you for creating this library. I was curious if there was any example of using it with a paragraph of text? Or is it only meant to be used one word at a time and get suggestions for that word?

Is there a performant way to feed in a paragraph, and get a hash of the problem-word, its offset, and its suggestions?

Thank you!

Hi,

To be honest, I used Hunspell for simple word-wise feedback. I don't know if hunspell lib has such a service.

UPDATE: according to this link, hunspell provides only low-level API so the feature you want has to be implemented on top of it.
