Spell Check Once #1117

Open julesgilson opened 3 years ago

julesgilson commented 3 years ago

Maybe I am missing something....

Firstly, this extension works very well, but are the only options on or off? I don't really want it to always spell check - is it not possible to have it so we can run a command to run spell check on the open document - but not do it automatically? Toggling on then off again seems a bit clunky - just a "Spell Check Current Document Now" command would be great.

Please, this ^

I didn't find any good spell checker that does exactly that. Thank you for the awesome job with this spell checker (the best IMO). I would love to have a discrete button in the status bar with a check on it, we press it and it runs for the current document alone.

Would love same, as well as the option to spell check the whole project from a command and list them in Problems area.

@robross0606,

I think it is easiest to use the command line tool for that.

Open a VS Code Terminal window:

npx cspell --no-progress "**"

It doesn't show up in the problem window, but you can ctrl-click on the file name to jump to the file.

Yes, I found cspell after making this comment. But that tool being available doesn’t quite negate the request for it being integrated into the vscode plugin.

I found this issue doing a search to make sure I wasn't duplicating.

I have an enhancement suggestion that is approximately similar:

I occasionally want spell checking of some words, but (for various reasons) a persistent-on spell checker is not desired.

Creating a "spell check once" command would solve 100% of my problem but what I really want is the ability to right-click a word and ask for spell checking of that specific word.
