This update addresses multiple critical bugs that were introduced in the affix file in 2.0.2, including one that caused Firefox to crash. Please update to this version.

Version 2.0.2 release notes:
I've updated compatibility for the next few releases of Thunderbird and Firefox, and finally taken the install.js file out. Due to this, the dictionary is no longer compatible with versions of Seamonkey prior to Seamonkey 2.0. If this is a problem for any Seamonkey users, please let me know.

I've added some common words I noticed were lost in the upstream merge for version 2.0, and improved the guessing on a common misspelling. As always, let me know if you think the dictionary can be improved.

Version 2.0.0 191.0 KiB

Version 2.0.0
Major Version Update

This major version update represents the integration of the latest SCOWL (http://wordlist.sourceforge.net/) en-CA word list into my dictionary. I have incorporated most of the changes suggested to me through user feedback. Some changes had already been fixed in SCOWL, of course, and some words are deliberately excluded from SCOWL's spell-check library because they are uncommon. As such, there may appear to be regressions in this update - please feel free to continue to email me with your corrections, suggestions, and feedback.
