Ich teste gerade dieses Plug-in anhand dieser Bewertung. Ich schreibe viele Wörter falsch manche fast unkenntlich falsch. Die Erkennung läuft ausgezeichnet und die Ersetzung über das Kontextualmenu auch. Zum Glück gibt es dieses Wörterbuch der alten Rechtschreibung. Ich werde die neue Falsch... äh, "Rechtschreibung" niemals respektieren.

Endlich mal eine Erweiterung mit der richtigen deutschen Rechtschreibung. Es blickt doch kein Mensch mehr durch bei der neuen Rechtschreibung mit diesen ganzen Verschlimmbesserungen. So falsch kann die Rechtschreibung nicht sein die 1901 eingeführt wurde.
