This plugin interfaces Vim with Antidote for efficient spell-checking and grammar checking from inside Vim. Antidote
is a very complete proprietary dictionary application maintained and distributed by the Canadian company Druide. It can perform not only spell checking, but also thorough grammar checking. Antidote
can handle LaTeX and Markdown markup. At the present time, it is limited to the English and French languages only.
The plugin provides a new :Antidote command and (recommended) mappings.
WARNING: this version of vim-antidote
is a Mac only plugin, so you will not benefit
from using vim-antidote
on Linux nor Windows. It can be installed on those systems,
however, but it will not load.
Install using your favorite package manager, or use Vim's built-in package support:
mkdir -p ~/.vim/pack/PatrBal/start
cd ~/.vim/pack/PatrBal/start
git clone https://github.com/PatrBal/vim-antidote
