A small list of spelling errors in synonyms.js

[Dinjoralo]

I decided to use Left for a personal writing project, and I'm very much liking it. One thing I noticed is that the first auto-complete word when typing 'w' is 'wwaft', which, judging by the placement and relevant synonyms, is supposed to be 'waft'. I've decided to go through and see what words might be misspelled, and make my own fork with an updated (And possibly expanded?) synonym list. Good work on managing to wrangle such a massive list of synonyms, by the by.

Hey @Dinjoralo, I noticed that w issue as well, but never got around to fix it.
If you wanna tackle some of the synonyms typos I would gladly merge this into master!

No problem! I pasted the file into OpenOffice and started going through it with spell check. I've gotten to the E's and learned a lot of more obscure words in the process. There's also some oddities, like 'words' that're just two to four random letters, like 'ajf' between citizen and civilization. I'll try to replace these as I can, but I can't guarantee the end file will be perfectly alphabetized since, in this example, I couldn't find a fitting word for the array of synonyms that began with 'ci*'. I will try to make the file easier to navigate for later, when I'll be adding some words I'm using in my writing project.

Sadly, the file I saved seems to be so long that OpenOffice takes about five minutes to open it, and it's already crashed once while scrolling through. I might try going through it it on Microsoft Office on my laptop, but then I'd have to start over with adding words to the dictionary and ignore list.

A small suggestion, also; A lot of "words" seem to be combined words that would make sense with hyphens. Adding the ability for auto-complete and synonym search to work with hyphened words would be a nice addition.

Er, mind if I report another bug? The writer seems to slow down pretty heavily, when working with documents around 30,000 characters. Changing the scale of the text seems to fix it until you type anything again.
