-moz-pre-wrap; white-space: -pre-wrap; white-space: -o-pre-wrap; word-wrap: \
break-word;">Krunner&#39;s spellcheck plugin has been broken since \
bd291d21f096a714a171e7af3a534ba345ca5659 (about two years ago) because it called \
Sonnet::Speller::setLanguage every time the spellchecker was invoked, which was not \
thread-safe.  This diff fixes the segfaults, and the feature, which I understand to \
be, basically, the ability to type &#39;spell french bonjour&#39; and have it check \
the spelling.

The current code simply calls setLanguage on the second term in the search query, and \
then checks whether the resulting dictionary object is valid. The spell-checker \
expects languages like &#39;fr_FR&#39; or &#39;French (France)&#39; which the user \
was unlikely to type in correctly (at least, I never figured it out until I read the \
source). 

Instead, this patch create a new spell-check object (the creation is guarded by a \
mutex) when a new language is used (thus never needing to call setLanguage). Future \
queries use the already created speller for the new language, and spellers are \
deleted on the teardown() signal. 

We make a map between the speller codes and simple natural language language names in \
init(); this is a little bit tricky, because languages have sub-variants. My approach \
was to try and find the main language of the group: so &#39;french&#39; gets you \
fr_FR.  For english I defaulted to US english. 

I have not tested this spelling an asian language as I don&#39;t speak one.

I have not implemented &#39;spell canadian french&#39; or similar. If you want a \
specific sublanguage you have to type in the language code directly.</pre>  </td>
