Learn spellings / Add words to dictionary

[thedataking]

It seems I can't teach the spell-check new words. This is a crucial feature, please add. If this feature exists already, it needs to be made discoverable, e.g. by right clicking the word, from the command palette, etc.

Thanks!

It doesn't already exist and it should be added.

Could or should this be done using the user dictionary at the system level? I know that hunspell and myspell use such dictionaries. It might but also be useful to have dictionaries at the project level if there is a lot of specialized terminology.

Quick(er) work-around: if I could easily get to a text user-dictionary & edit it by hand.

I don't believe this features has been added yet. I've been spending hours trying to figure out a way to get rid of those extremely annoying red dashes below quite common words like "wireframes", "frontend", "backend", etc. I found that spell-check relies on node-spellchecker which ships dictionaries for hunspell itself (leaving any system dictionaries, I think) The only way I found to add words is to edit /usr/share/atom/resources/app/node_modules/spell-check/node_modules/spellchecker/vendor/hunspell_dictionaries/en_US.dic Of course I do not recommend this method to anyone. I hope a more user friendly way of adding words to the spell checker dictionary will be implemented soon!

Project level or globally and maybe export/import the words this would be useful for teams.
