Using Open Office's West Frisian spell checker in Firefox spellchecker. (You don't have to have OpenOffice installed.)
All I have now is quick instructions, English only. Detailed instructions, and Fryske fersje in progress.
Quick instructions
1. For best results, have at least one spellcheck wordlist installed.
- If you have never installed an additional Firefox spellchecker "dictionary," it would be a good idea to do so. I'm not 100% sure my hack will work otherwise. Plus, if you have at least one word list installed, it will be easier to make sure you're in the correct directory for step 2.
2. Create directory for new wordlist.
- In the relevant Firefox profile directory, under subdirectory extensions, create a new directory, OpenOfficeFrysk (or another name of your choosing). In that new directory, create a subdirectory called dictionaries.
3. Install the wordlist files.
- A) If you don't have Open Office, or you don't have the fy word list installed there, download this file and unzip it in the directory you just created.
- B) If you do have the word list installed in OpenOffice, you can just copy the files if you prefer. Copy fy_NL.dic and fy_NL.aff from share\dict\ooo (in windows, most likely c:\Program Files\OpenOffice.org x.x\share\dict\ooo) to the directory you just created.
4. Add the directory to extensions.ini.
- In the relevant Firefox profile directory, make a backup copy of the file extensions.ini. Now edit the file and add a this line at the end of the [ExtensionDirs] section.
- Extensionnumber=profile path\extensions\OpenOfficeFrysk
- Number should obviously be 1 greater than the highest number of existing extensions installed.
5. If Firefox is open, you'll need to restart it before the new word list will be available.
Detailed Bilingual Instructions
Detailed instructions: Under construction, draft in progress.
2. If you have never installed an additional Firefox spellcheck "dictionary," it would be a good idea to do so. That will make it easier for you to figure out the right profile directory where you'll be copying the files. Also, to be honest, I'm not entirely sure my hack will work if you've never installed a second language dictionary. There might be a switch or setting in Firefox that I don't know about.

(If there is more than one xxxxxxxx.default file, then you have created multiple profiles. See the mozilla site: Managing profiles.) under subdirectory extensions, create a new directory where you'll put your copy of that list. (I called mine "OpenOfficeFrysk." I'll use that name in directions from now on.) In that new directory, create a subdirectory called dictionaries. 4. If you now have the fy word list installed in Open Office, copy the files fy_NL.dic and fy_NL.aff from share\dict\ooo (in windows, most likely c:\Program Files\OpenOffice.org x.x\share\dict\ooo) to the directory you just created. If you don't have the word list installed yet, download this file into the directory you just created, and unzip it there.
