Version: 2.0.85 (using Devel) OS: Linux Kile is a LaTeX editor but its spellchecker does not understand TeX source code. Example: ``This is a quote'' In this example the text `` is marked as a spelling error. However, `` and '' are used when quoting text in TeX. Thus, it should not be seen as an error. It seems that the spellcheck is already somewhat context aware because it does not check words starting with '\'. It would probably be relevant to include a functionality to ignore comments. It is often not desirable to spellcheck comments. Reproducible: Always
Please update to KDE 4.5.1. The spell checking problems that you mention have been fixed there. Also, please ensure that you don't have an old latex.xml lying around (in ~/.kde/share/apps/katepart/syntax/). Thanks. Regarding the spell checking of comments, some users like it, others don't. So, I think the easiest would be to make this more configurable.
@Thomas: As Michel said, please try again with a more recent Kate version (or Kile that uses a newer version of Kate). Can we close this report?
I will try it soon.
Any news?
I will try as soon as possible.

It seems to have been fixed in current version of kile.
Then maybe it's .kde4 instead of .kde. Thanks for the feedback.

I think this should work now with the new spell check support in the xml files including the encoding mapping.
