    PS: The forum script has modified some characters. Please ensure that the quotes are always up! you can take both, single and double quotes. I’ll try again below.
    
    PS: Das Forum-Skript hat ein paar Zeichen modifiziert. Bitte darauf achten, dass die Anführungszeichen immer oben sind. Ob es einfache oder doppelte sind, ist egal. Ich versuch’s unten noch einmal:
    
    this.list = ’de_DE,en_GB’;
    this.list = this.list.value.toString().split(’,’);
    
    or
    
    this.list = "de_DE,en_GB";
    this.list = this.list.value.toString().split(",");

    Hello,
    
    Great plugin! I am using the Thunderbird extension which works great, but I propose an improvement. Instead of checking the language after the text got 15 or 30 characters long, I would propose doing this every 15 characters. The reason is that if your paragraph starts with long words, contains proper names and you happen to be in the middle of the next word, then Dictionary Switcher won’t autodetect the language correctly. Interestingly, this happens quite often to me.
    
    Another thing, I don’t know if you did it on purpose or not, but the fact that it does autodetection per-paragraph is brilliant.

    Just downloaded the add-on for the third time but no way to install it.
    I have followed the instructions…but when I got to Tools > add-ons it does not show up in the list to install…
    if I go directly to the download directory…self explanatory
    What can I do?
    I am using TB 2.0.0.21 newest update.

    Danke für diese sehr nützliche Erweiterung. Könnte man bitte die Kompatibilität für Thunderbird v3.0 anpassen?

    I really love this plug-inn. Thank you!!
    
    I hope in the future it will also work with TB 3.0

    Hi I really find this very useful (I am a German living and working in Ireland) Sometimes there is “lag” after changing the language (e.g. you have to save the message to drafts and reopen it to see the new spell check markings). To improve this one flaw would be a major breakthrough.
    
    The other thing is the interface (for me toggling is okay as I only use 2 languages) but for people who have multiple languages a popup menu might be much better. I would even prefer a button for the top toolbar with a dropdown chevron.
    
    You could then also include language specific flags, like the Quick Locale switcher. If you don’t have time I could contribute some code towards this.
    
    regards

    Hello - just echoing many other comments. This is a very useful extension for those of us who work in multiple languages in Thunderbird. Also a plea to have in updated to Thunderbird 3.x. I “hacked” the xpi file to make it pass the version compatibility test, but unfortunately the Options button is greyed out. Sigh. I am sure there would be many, many of us who would be grateful to have some more work done of this extension. If you had a “tip jar”, I’d gladly contribute.
    
    Regards,
    Tinshed

    This is one of the most useful plug-ins for Thunderbird.
    
    It would be great to be able to keep it with the newest TB versions.
    
    Many many thanks

    Thanks for this great extension!
    
    I miss it every day since I switched to TB3. Hope you can make it compatible.
    
    Thanks again!

    Hello ..
    For those missing this great extension working in TB 3 I’ve just modified file install.rdf as follows:
    
    Original: <em:maxVersion>3.0a1</em:maxVersion>
    Modified:<em:maxVersion>3.0</em:maxVersion>
    
    When using Windows XP you may find this file here:
    C:\Documents and Settings\<your_user_id>\Application Data\Thunderbird\Profiles\default\<your_profile_name>.slt\extensions\dictionary-switcher-tb@design-noir.de
    
    From some brief testing I’ve done it seems Dictionary Switcher works without problems.
    
    Anyway… try at your own risk but don’t forget to backup before modify !

    Hello again …
    It may be necessary to change also the file extensions.rdf located here:
    C:\Documents and Settings\<your_user_id>\Application Data\Thunderbird\Profiles\default\<your_profile_name>.slt
    Search it for the Dictionary Switcher id that you may found in the install.rdf.
    It is: {3550f703-e582-4d05-9a08-453d09bdfdc6}
    Then modify the line:
    NS1:maxVersion=“3.0a1” with NS1:maxVersion=“3.0”.
    Once again try at your own risk but don’t forget to backup before modify !

    To have a small list of dictionaries to choose from, the following has been suggested by Kristian:

    this.list = ’de_DE,en_GB’;
    this.list = this.list.value.toString().split(’,’);

    However, this did not work for me. What did work is:
    
    this.list.value = ’de_DE,en_GB’;
    this.list = this.list.value.toString().split(’,’);
    
    Note that I added “value” to the first line.
    
    It would be great if this would become a feature, accessible under the properties of this Add-on.

    Hi,
    The switch Is great !
    
    However using Thunderbird 2.0.0.23 beware for update to Dictionary Swich 1.1.4 - You will not see it working. You will need to uninstall it, and then install version 1.1.3
    
    best regards to You Dao !

    Auto-detection doesn’t work. It doesn’t switch between Russian and English.
    I have version 1.1.5 and Thunderbird 3.0.

    Hi,
    
    I am using TB 2.0.0.23 and try to get the autoswitching to work. While in the Firefox-extension the switch from de-DE to en-US works fine I can’t get it to work in Thunderbird.
    
    I have set the pref extensions.dictionary-switcher.autodetect to true but that doesn’t seem to change anything. Are there any other requirements to get this feature to work?
