Dictionary directory is hardcoded

[yannakopoulos]

If you build Code from source rather than using Microsoft's binaries (for example, by installing from the Arch User Repository), the application is by default called "Code - OSS" and user configuration files live in ~/.config/Code - OSS/ on Linux. However, it looks like Spell Right only ever looks in ~/.config/Code/ for dictionaries. It works fine if you symlink ~/.config/Code/ to ~/.config/Code - OSS/, but it would be better if Spell Right checked the correct config folder to begin with.

Do you know an VSCode's API call that would tell you this directory's name?

Because I do not hence even Insiders poses a problem and the name is produced manually...

[yannakopoulos]

I don't think there is one yet, although it's been requested here: microsoft/vscode#2741

Maybe a solution like this? alefragnani/vscode-project-manager#178

Many thanks for pointing these out. It will be changed in next release.

And BTW, I have not had a chance to test it with version built from sources (just regular and insiders) so please, maybe you could install this version from VSIX:

and let me know if it works.

Yes, that version works fine. Thanks!
