Since installing a new language requires some non easy procedures. The idea is to collect here the dictionaries ready for use.

Today this contains a list of some languages, the idea is to extends the list with help from the community.

My primary language is Spanish, then I'm not sure of the state and quality of the different languages added here.

Please if you found a better dictionary or something to improve, your change will be welcome.

To add a new language:

Download the language file from here.
Rename the "some.oxt" file to "some.zip"
Unzip the file
Look for three files: "lang.aff", "lang.dic" and "readme_lang.txt"(or something similar)
Open the "lang.aff" to check the encoding used. Such the line: "SET ISO-8859-1"
Convert that file to UTF-8 from the used encoding
Convert "lang.dic" to UTF-8 from the used encoding.
Convert "readme_lang.txt" to UTF-8 from the used encoding.
Change "SET ISO-8859-1" to "SET UTF-8"
Copy "readme_lang.txt" to "lang.txt"
Copy these three files to this repository
Update the language list above in this file, add yourself to the credits section (keep alphabetical order!)
Open a pull request to help improve this package! Thank you.

Iconv may be used to convert a file to UTF-8 from another encoding. For example:

iconv -f iso-8859-1 -t utf-8 en_CA.aff > en_CA_utf8.aff

You can use the file command to check an encoding:

file -bi en_CA_utf8.aff

Example output:

text/plain; charset=utf-8

Note that us-ascii might be reported if there are no unicode (utf-8) characters present in the file.
