Output word list to spell check
Hi,
I really like this little program but how I wish I could output the list of words to a spell checking program. My brother uses LetMeType a lot and he can't spell very well. So a lot of words in the list are misspelled and it's very laborious to check the list manually inside LetMeType :-(
It would be great if there was an option to export the words to a plain text file.
Thanks for this great little program.

using letmetype as spellinghelper
the solution is to import a list in letmeType as you start; this list should be a very large list from an experienced user checked on spelling mistakes (open the text file in word and spell check); you also can use a large wordlist; in the settings dialog then you uncheck learn words, so there are no wrong words imported.
That will do the trick.
greetings Paul

Thanks
Hi Carsten,
Just wanted to say 'Thanks!' for your fine program LetMeType.
It is one of the few programs I use every day and this for quite some time now.
Also thanks for making it available free of charge!
Kind regards

Great
It's a beautiful programm voor dyslectic people (i.c. children!). Don't use in that case the option Learn Words!
Before using the programm I filled it with the large wordlist and another Dutch list. It works perfect. But in the classroom is the blieb tone irritating. A headtelephone doesn't help. But this is an minor point.

Re: beeping
The beeps are output via the internal speaker, so they cannot be turned off by changing the sound volume or connecting headphones. But there is an option under File - Preferences - Suggestions labelled "Sound". If you disable it, the beeps will stop.

WinXP OnScreen Keyboard and LetMeType
I work with a person who has limited hand function and uses the OnScreen keyboard in WinXP with a mouse. She has reported having conflicts with the OnScreen keyboard and LetMeType. She may be using an older version of LMT. Do you have any suggestions?

Laptop
I love this little program, but I find I have to click to choose words because my laptop doesn't have a separate numerical keyboard. How about making that aspect configurable in a future version ?

Re: minimize to tray on startup?
If you check the Properties of LetMeType's Start menu entry in the Autostart folder, you should see a drop-down list where you can set it to start minimized.

Letters
Hi,
Very useful application. There are one problem. This application can't recognize one Lithuanian letter, ž (capital letter OK). Maybe this problem can be solved?

Learn Words if "x" occurances
I would like the option of having the program learn a word only after the 2nd or 3rd time that I type it in. That way, my list would not be filled up with some terms that I type in only once. Also, I would like a quick keyboard shortkey that would allow me to close the window that opens right on top of where I am typing and blocks my view. I know that I can move the position to a fixed location, but most of the time I want the position right where I can see it (near where I am typing) so I have it now set at "caret".

It is an excellent program, but it creates a space between words as we type and use suggest. For example I typed a word Humpback Whales in MS Word and when I type Hu and LetMeType suggest Humpback but when I use LetMeType Suggestion it creates a space and shows like this Hu mpback Whales. This doesn't create a problem in the comment area here only in Office. Thanks. Chris.

Keyboard input is sometimes not passed to application
Hi,
I'm a translator and spend most of my days typing, typing, typing. So thanks for this precious little tool! There is only one problem: Sometimes the suggestions given by LetMeType are not inserted into the current application. When the corresponding number key is pressed, nothing at all happens. And two minutes later it works fine again. I've even tried switching keyboards, but with no success. Is there some hidden setting that might fix this behaviour?
Kind regards,
Armin

strange behavior
I have two problems using letmetype 1.81 Sometimes the suggestion is not passed to the current application, and secondly, sometimes the follow-on suggestion screens are not displayed. Has anyone experienced this? Btw I'm using a laptop and winXP home edition.(I don't think this is important, but anyway.)
Thanks

Difficulty importing text
How do I import text? I work with students with learning disabilities and would like to import correctly spelled words and disable the "learn text" feature. I tried several different ways without success.
Thanks for you help as this could be a very powerful program once I figure out how to import text.

Not workin in Windows XP?
It learns words alright, but I can't seem to insert the suggestions no matter what I try -- tried different apps, text editor, web browser and switching to numpad, all to no avail...

Re: Difficulty importing text
To import text, save it in a text file, and use the menu item File - Import Text.
The "learn text" feature can easily be switched off with menu item Settings - Learn Words.

Re: Not workin in Windows XP?
The last time I tried, it worked perfectly well with WinXP. You might want to try version 1.8, which used a different method of inserting text.

frage zu letmetype
Hi Carsten,
erstmal ein dankeschön für das Programm. Ist vielversprechend, leider habe ich ein Problem damit: Wenn ich die suggestions des Programms in Word annehme, wird automatisch ein Abstand inkludiert: zB transporter, ich schreibe "trans", nehme per Nummernpad "transporter" an, daraus wird: "trans porter". Wie werd ich das los? Wäre dankbar, merci, d.

Unerwünschtes Leerzeichen in MS Word
Hallo,
das Programm ist sehr sehr nützlich!
Leider habe ich auch das Problem, das hier schon mehrfach beschrieben wurde, dass MS Word 2003 ab SP2 ein Leerzeichen automatisch einfügt, wenn Text aus der Zwischenablage eingefügt wird.
Wenn man bsp. "Hubschrauber" einmal schreibt, dann "Hub" eintippt und LetMeType vervollständigen lässt, ist das Ergebnis "Hub schrauber".
Vielleicht wäre es eine Lösung, das Wort komplett neu zu schreiben, d.h. die vorigen Buchstaben durch SHIFT+Pfeiltaste markieren und dann das ganze Wort über die Zwischenablage einfügen (so ist es bei einem anderen Tool implementiert, das auch eine Vervolständigen-Funktion anbietet, allerdings nicht so flexibel ist).
Wäre schön, wenn man den Fehler beheben kann, da das Tool sonst wirklich große Klasse ist!
Gruß
Michael.

... nochmal Leerzeichen-Problem ...
Hallo,
man kann das Problem abstellen, wenn man den automatischen Leerzeichenausgleich von Word 2003 abschaltet (Extras>Optionen>Bearbeiten im Bereich "Ausschneide- und Einfüge-Operationen" auf "Einstellungen..." klicken und das Häkchen bei "Satz- und Wortabstand automatisch anpassen" entfernen).

Divided words
Hello, has someone found out why words are divided in Word? Like for instance, I type the word DISTRIBUIDORA and the suggestion comes as DIST RIBUIDORA. Outside that, this is an excellent application.

Re: divided words
Hi, see the German comment before yours: in Word, go to Tools-->Options--> Edit tab, then under Cut and Paste options, click Settings..., finally, uncheck the option called Adjust sentence and word spacing automatically.
NB I do not use LetMeType, just reading the comments about :)

Hi,

DEFAULT_CHARS
Hi,
I'm unable to make any char that is based on two sequential keys pressed like É (combination of ´ and Shift+e) when the second keys uses shift to do the uppercase.
Can any programmer give me a clue on how to change the source for it ?

Insert vs. Overwrite mode
I use Eudora to compose email. Each time I use a phrase suggested by LetMeType, Eudora toggles the Overwrite Mode. When Overwrite is On, my typing will replace any characters already there. This is particularly problematic when I am editing in the middle of a sentence. When Overwrite is Off, my typing will be inserted. I can manually toggle Overwrite by pressing the Insert key on the keyboard. How do I stop LetMeType from toggling Overwrite mode in Eudora?

Eudora toggles overwrite mode
The simple solution was to disable overwrite mode by adding the line
AllowOverwriteMode=0
in the EUDORA.INI file.
