As I'm sure you guys have noticed, 1.4 reset the WebOS dictionary to factory. Before I go into WOSQI and update the dictionary with my custom one, has anyone verified that /etc/palm/autoreplace/en_us/ is still the right place to put it?

Thanks in advance..

drewjohn, do you have a list of the words you removed from the 3k list? how many did you remove?

I'm having a large problem with this patch not installing at all. Could it be that I'm using WebOS 1.4? I keep getting this error:

no i didn't take the time to copy them down. took too long just to seach through the list. i would say i removed 100+

i'm not sure what that is. i have my autoreplace back using 1.4. do you have a conflicting patch like the normal 3000 autoreplace or the 100 extra. maybe someone else knows better than me.

Gotcha. Yeah, had wanted to compile our delete lists to make a definitive auto-replace list with no mess-ups.

I've actually removed well over 300 bad entries from the 3k list so far, so hopefully got the ones you plucked out, too. Will post my final cleaned up auto-replace dictionary when I think I've gotten them all out... (or close to it).

Does anyone know why some entries are blue and others are black? I'm using Notepad++ btw.

Left a similar request for help up front, since I'm not sure if the problem is QI, or the Auto-replace file itself (which seems to be working properly in its 'factory' condition):

http://forums.precentral.net/palm-pr...error-8-a.html

I am trying to add some of my own changes to the text-edit-autoreplace file in WebOS 1.4. I thought I did all my research on the topic, including testing the Auto Correct Edit app and looking at the 3000 Google words patch, etc. Ultimately I decided to simply make my own changes to the original file, as explained here.

But ---> I cannot get Quick Install to actually receive the file from my Pre for editing. When I try, i get "Error 8 - file open failed"

I did have the "100 More Autoreplace" patch installed, and have removed it via QI (had errors from Preware).

I have removed all of the other auto-edit apps and patches, and have been able to remove and install a variety of other (unrelated) patches using QI. I am able to see all installed patches and apps through QI. Essentially, everything else seems to be working fine.

I am using QI 3.02. I have turned Dev Mode off then on again. Nothing solves the problem.

OK, the "Error 8" problem from above was solved, thanks to ChemEgr, who suggested I ignore the error and acquire the file from an alternate source. After 'send' the file transfer now works successfully through QI.

I am even able to 'receive' the file through QI now as well.

Jah, +1 for having someones most up to date file

As requested, here is my latest text-edit-autoreplace file.

It builds on the awesome work of drewjohn (file from reply #33 above), and incorporates the deletions I listed in #72 above.

You will need to add any extra autoreplace strings you'd like, and then rename the file without the -dhkeller.txt extension.

Use WebOS QI to install (following the instructions in comment #52, and others) and then do a full restart of the phone.

Since I am useless developing patches, this is a way I can contribute. Feel free to post more changes you require, and I'll see how long I can keep this updated.

Going through my current list to incorporate dhkeller changes-- too many personalized ones to just put the -dhkeller version over mine...

another Removal to suggest.

I know what you mean about keeping track of personal changes.

FWIW, I have confirmed that auto-edit strings do NOT have to be in alphabetical order, so I keep all my additions right on top. That certainly helps with those.

Does anyone know if there is a "comment out" structure to WebOS that allows for leaving the deletions in the file? This might make it easier to compile everyone's deletions in something better than the list form I published above.

Also ... when I have a personal correction to the standard file that may not apply to everyone, does anyone know for sure what Pre does when there are two auto-edits for the same original string (for example, my neice - nice - niece string)? Haven't tested that ... may have to.

and yes, I have discovered a one or two more that I have to fix for myself ...

arr|are (I prefer the "arr" abbreviation for arrive/arrival)

I second this notion. I keep all my personal autoreplace entries in a list appended to the end of the 3k list (though wonder if up top is better?). Makes it easy to add and edit my own stuff should I come up with new ones.

Been working on a personal shorthand list as well - it's in process ..I'm trying to make a really intuitive shorthand set based on the 300 most used english words.

Will post when it's ready!
