Auto-correction word distance
Posted: Sun Oct 17, 2010 6:19 pm
As I mentioned in another thread, I am seeing a problem with auto-correction with accented letters, like razon having razones suggested instead of razón.
I started this topic because I noticed another problem with the word distance algorithm. I have someone in my contacts list with last name Oka and have the option to use contacts as suggestions. When I enter lower case "oka", Oka is the second suggestion even though only casing differences are clearly almost 0 distance but the word gets replace with ola in spanish or okay in english. I wanted to ask about this before opening a bug. Is this a bug? am I missing something? it seems to me that two words with exactly the same spelling but only case differences should be the first suggestion.
