spell checker options?

[s_m_b]

Is there an option within the spell checker to ignore certain file types?

I'm happy for spell checking within htm files etc, but other file types it just gets in the way.

I hope I understood your problem, so maybe this will help you (- from the UE help):

...
Enable spell check as you type
If this option is selected spell checking will occur automatically as text is typed. Please note: By default UltraEdit and UEStudio will not perform this option on any syntax-highlighted files. To change this setting and support spell check as you type for a syntax-highlighted file, add the following to the language definition line (e.g., /L3"HTML" ...) of the wordfile:

EnableSpellasYouType
...

sort of. It doesn't really tackle it for those files where there is no syntax file, though.

If these other file types systematically have the same extension, but they don't come with a syntax file, then why not just create an almost empty syntax file to catch them and through that disable spell checking.

I have to admit I have not experimented with this - only an idea.
