Description Alemann Massho 2012-05-09 22:23:15 UTC
From https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/tomboy/+bug/546658:

"The spell checker in Tomboy should ignore ALL UPPERCASE words, since these are typically acronyms, and will likely not be present in the dictionary. So many red squiggly underlines in notes on technical subjects is very distracting.

Tomboy 1.0.0-0ubuntu2

Ubuntu 9.10, 32 bit, up-to-date."

I checked this in the latest git version, the bug is still there.

The patch looks good. I want to run with it for a couple of days before committing.

The fix looks good so far, but one thing that I noticed is that WikiWords are being spell checked too. Probably we should open another bug and create a patch for that issue too.
