    I'mma leave this sticked for a week or so, to leave it in the spotlight, and yes this is posted here to draw attention to it.

    So, in an effort to be helpful to the community, and to also stop that annoying ass shit of having to redo all your shit again in Office and OpenOffice, I have decided to embark on a grand mission.

    So I want everyone here to send all your custom dictionary files from OO and MsO to me.

    I'll eventually compile a massive dictionary of as many terms as I can, and host them on my website. From there, is as simple as download and add, and never have to worry again. :awesome

    Do it, cunts, or daddy is gonna shank mommy while you sleep.

    Fuck it, if you'd asked two weeks ago before I'd formatted my everything you could have had the shit I'd built up over eight or so years. Timing, she's a finnicky twat.

    YOU FAIL OZ! GOOD DAY, SIR!

    Seems like a great idea, Vash. It'll make writing much easier when you don't have to second guess things. That, and the OO dictionaries are really, really shitty.

    Schweet. Emailed.

    Zombie, they're not too bad...Much easier to make a new one than Office iirc.

    Office2007 is entirely shit, so it doesnt matter. OpenOffices are only just barely better. Not to mention the fact that its massive bloatware, and doesn't even have grammar checking.

    Surprising, but an MS product is superior to something.

    It has some grammar check.. It underlined some stuff in green last night when I was working on my story, which surprised me... Although, I think it was just pointing out that I didn't finish the sentence.

    That... is just about all it does. :/

    Office's is superior in that regard.

    Regardless, this, is the point of this post. Version 1.0 is out with 840 words. I'm eventually going to steal Tinn's list tomorrow, just before revising gets to her and she hangs herself. The lost city of Eldorado of dictionary files, that has to be. >_>

    -Snickers-

    I'd send you mine, but I do very little writing/Betaing for HP fics, so I rather doubt it'd have anything meaningful.

    The completed works will definatley get added to my dictionary's though.
