  • Wish there was support for dictionary autocompletion.

    I think ltex-ls actually does this! (Haven’t used it so idk how good it is, maybe give it a shot!)

    ltex-ls is huge. I have following setup in Neovim which works excellent. (I use Neovim only as scratchpad)
  • Simple plugin to handle code actions from ltex-ls
    5 projects | /r/neovim | 14 Mar 2023
    Hi, folks! There is great language server that provides spell checking for markdown and LTeX files using language tool called ltex-ls. By default there is no ability to use code code actions like Add to dictionary, Hide false positive, and Disable rule in NeoVim since those handlers should be implemented on the client side. So I created a simple plugin to add handlers to those actions and load already saved information on initialization of the server. I had no time to extensively test it yet, but it seems working for me just fine.

    You can use ltex-ls with an LSP client. It looks like FOSS.

  • pantran.nvim: asynchronous, interactive machine translation directly from your editor
    8 projects | /r/neovim | 6 Jul 2022
    Story time: I really love Neovim for programming, but one thing I love it even more for is scientific writing. Tools like texlab make this especially fun! But for a well-rounded experience, I need a few more things: (i) Grammar checking. For that I can recommend ltex, an LSP-server which adds LaTeX support to language tool. (ii) Thesaurus lookup. (Neo)vims integrated thesaurus format is a little bit limited. But thankfully 'thesaurusfunc' exists so I could easily write a small plugin to add support for openoffice.org mythes thesauri. (iii) Machine translation. Now we're finally getting to the topic of this post. I write most of my stuff in English but I'm not a native speaker, so machine translation is valuable for me. It can help me to overcome writers block to an extent, for example. There already exist a few plugins for that problem, like vim-translator or translate.nvim. But none of these support interactive modes, a slick UI, and, as far as I know, useful things like motions and counts. This is where my plugin pantran.nvim comes into place! The demo should speak for itself. In the end it was a lot more effort than I anticipated but I'm very pleased with the result. I hope this can be useful to others as well!

    Neovim with https://github.com/folke/zen-mode.nvim and https://github.com/valentjn/ltex-ls . You can fold headings in Markdown which is super useful.

    Hi, it seems that the ltex-ls will not have this features added https://github.com/neovim/nvim-lspconfig/issues/1443, but there is no plugin available to do it, grammar-guard has stalled.
  • Configuring Neovim for writing prose and XML
    3 projects | /r/neovim | 15 Nov 2021
    I am actually writing a blog post on almost this exact topic! Ltex-ls https://github.com/neovim/nvim-lspconfig/blob/master/doc/server_configurations.md#ltex is not fully integrated yet, add to dictionary doesn't do anything! You can add manually for now in the setup, for example: lua require('lspconfig').ltex.setup { settings = { ltex = { disabledRules = { ['en-US'] = { 'PROFANITY' } }, dictionary = { ['en-US'] = { 'Deno', 'Neovim', 'ltex-ls' } }, }, }, } The above disables a rule, and adds some words to the dictionary. Adding these rules manually is not ideal, but using ltex-ls in Neovim is new and the ability to do these things automatically has not yet been added. Keep an eye on grammar-guard.nvim for these features being added.
