Word Completion Dictionary Editor for WM6?

[PGMMA]

Has anyone found a word completion dictionary editor that works with WM6? The two I used to use with WM5 cannot find the dictionary in WM6. I imagine Microsoft changed the file type or location.

Edit: This is the dictionary that adds words that you type that are not already in the regular dictionary. The problem arises when you mistype a word and it pops up everytime you're typing a message. The editor allows you to see the words that you have created and edit or delete them.

Here's as link for a good one if you still have WM5: http://dmitriy.geels.googlepages.com/dictionaryeditor

I contacted the software developer of a dictionary editor and he says that Microsoft has changed the name of the files that contain the dictionary and he will work on it soon to make it compatible with WM6.

This seems to be a bigger problem for the developers than first thought. The developer is asking for a registry value but I don't have a registry editor. Can someone with a registry editor (and WM6) post the value for this string:

HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Spell Check\User_Dict

Thanks in advance.

\windows\custom.dic

\windows\custom.dic

;)

Thank you very much. This brings up another mystery: that file doesn't exist in the Windows folder but the Word Completion dictionary works. Back to the drawing board.

1)
I just checked on my system too. I confirm that the file custom.dic doesn't show up in my Windows directory.
2)
I forgot to tell you that my system had been modified in term of word completion.
I'm using the SEA Dopod wm6 rom in English, but I have installed a cab that changes my word completion from English to French.

I believe there are 3 dictionaries: The first auto-corrects spelling errors, the second holds the language dependant words, and the last is the word completion for your own words. This last one is not language dependant as it is filled with words you have added that aren't in the second dictionary. That's the one I'm trying to edit.

Thanks again.

Thank you for the file name. I'll pass this information on to the developer and we'll see if he can get the software to work.

I got word back from the developer that he cannot decode the file structure of compimeh.0409.dat but he will continue to work on it. Eventualy we'll get an editor, someone will come up with it.

do they encode it to save time or space? seems odd, since it's gonna be small. to be proprietary? i just don't get it. and idea?

All I know is that he said he cannot use this file with his Dictionary Editor (as it exists) but said that he is buying a WM6 device (TyTn II) and shortly after he should be able to update his software to work with WM6.

[michaelra]

Ouch.. so as of now, there are not word editors that works with WM2006 yet? :(

I'm afraid you're right :(

[PGMMA]

I contacted the developers of the two most widely available editors that currently work with WM5. One said that he has no immediate plans to upgrade his software to work with WM6 and the other said he is working on it. So I guess we all have to wait some more.

[PGMMA]

Can anyone interpret the file structure of Windows/compimeh.0409.dat? Once this is accomplished, we can have a Word Completion Dictionary Editor again.

[dmcpilot]

any updates?

[BAMAToNE]

I'm curious about any update to this, too. Having mistyped words before, it drives me bonkers when they pop up on autocomplete. I really want to go in and delete them before they drive me mad! :p

[deejacker]

DictMgr from here:

http://mobile-sg.com/software/?platform=ppc

It only says wm2003 and above...so it doesn't say that it can work with WM6, but it was updated in Dec 2007, so you never know. It is free so worth a try. Feedback your findings.

[BAMAToNE]

"Installation of DictMgr.cab was unsuccessful. The installation file is not intended for this device."

Drat. Thanks for the effort, though.

[deejacker]

there are some more dictionary editors on these sites, I haven't tried any of them, but if you haven't before and didn't know about these sites, then give these a go:

http://www.freewareppc.com

http://www.freewarepocketpc.net

apologies if you have looked through these 2 before.

Hi Guys, I am not sure if you really need a Word Completion Dictionary Editor for Windows Media 6 Professional. Until the release of the software is available, in the meanwhile, you may opt for an alternative, meant for the desperados who can't wait for the release; just kidding :D

The instructions are as follows. You begin from the main screen. Click Start, followed by Settings. In Settings mode, under Personal tab, you will see the Input icon. In Input mode, under the Word Completion tab, click Clear Stored Entries.

This does not change the words in the dictionary. It clears the words you've added to the dictionary. If you've added a few words that you don't want to remove, but are added to the dictionary you will lose them as well.

I just did another search of the internet and still no WM6 word completion editor to be found. Now I'm wondering if we'll ever see one.

I'm using the SEA Dopod wm6 rom in English, but I have installed a cab that changes my word completion from English to French.

As per request, plz find here attached the cab to change word completion from english to french.
Enjoy!

[M_O_N_A_C_O]

Does anybody happen to know, if there is (like ...French... above) also a
WM6GermanInput.cab

or one that supports 2 languages, I'd need German and English ...?

Thx !

*bump*

Any updates on this? Has anyone managed to figure out a way to edit the dictionary yet?

[RobTheRover]

**SOLVED**

Found it!!!

There is a .EXE file in \Windows on your device called eT9MyWords. god only knows why there is no default shortcut to it in the Programs list! Very mean Microsoft/HTC! lol

Run this and you are presented with a list of all the words T9 was added as custom words you have typed, and you can edit and delete them until your heart is content (as mine now is!).

No more misspelt rubbish popping up for me! lol

[mccune]

This only applies to WM6.1\6.5. Not to the older WM6 dictionary. you will see that the list is empty if you've disable the xT9 function and use the older pre WM6.1 dictionary.
