You should not do that. You'll need spaces for the correction stuff soon
and then your format is dead. You could use a format like this to be
human readable:
"helo" => "hello" 
per line, but this overkill I'd say. Rather go with XML and use
<correctionlist>
  <correction from="helo" to="hello"/>
  ...
</correctionlist>

This is as readable and you shouldn't need QTextStream ;)

There is no Global vs. User with KDE2 (as there is no KDEDIR). You only
do
QStringList allfiles = KGlobal::dirs()->findAllResources("appdata",
"corrections");
to get all correction files including the user given

And about the I18N, you would add 
allfiles += KGlobal::dirs()->findAllResources("appdata",
KGlobal::locale()->language() + "/corrections");

You also can do that in a loop and use insteadof ->language() the list
that
locale()->languageList() returns
