Completion At Point extensions using Jinx spell checking

Cape-jinx-completion package

Simple package providing completion-at-point extension using spell checking capabilities derived from Abiword's libenchant. All of the heavy lifting is done using jinx.el package - Enchanted Spell Checker.

Libenchant wraps several of the spell checkers. Jinx.el package provides on-the-fly spell checking and is a pleasure to configure, especially when using multiple dictionaries.

Picture is worth a thousand words

Installation instructions

Requirements

cape.el - Completion At Point Extensions. Jinx.el version at least 0.5 is required. Jinx requires libenchant installed in the system and at least one of the supported spell checkers (hunspell, Nuspell, GNU aspell) and dictionaries you want to use.

Using straight.el

  ;; First we need to configure jinx. You don't need to enable jinx-mode to use cape-jinx,
  ;; but you need to provide configuration and set up dictionaries to use.
  (use-package jinx
    :straight (:host github :repo "minad/jinx" :files ("*"))
    :config
    ;; Add unicode stuff I need to exclude from spell-checking (emojis, symbols, etc)
    (push "[\U00002600-\U0001ffff]"
          (alist-get t jinx-exclude-regexps))
    ;; set langauge dictionaries to use - the list is space seprated in a single string.
    (setq jinx-languages "pl en"))

  ;; Cape-jinx package and configuration:
  (use-package cape-jinx-completion
    :straight (:type git
                     :repo "https://code.bsdgeek.org/adam/cape-jinx-completion"
                     :files (:defaults "*.el"))
    :after jinx
    :config
    ;; add cape-jinx to completion-at-point functions list.
    (add-to-list 'completion-at-point-functions #'cape-jinx-completion))

Customization

Options available to customize are literally copied from cape-dict and work exactly the same way.

  • cape-jinx-case-replace Controls whether case of input be preserved.
  • cape-jinx-case-fold Controls whether case fold search should be used during search.
