I am running LT locally and would like to disable certain rules (let’s say the multiple whitespace one). I added rulesFile=languagetool.cfg to my server.properties file, which I load with --config.
This seems to work, as I see this:
My languagetool.cfg contains only one line: rule id="MULTIPLE_WHITESPACE" enabled="false"
But I still get error messages more than one spaces. What am I doing wrong?
I never realized that rules have different names in different languages… So if I wanted to de-activate the multiple whitespace rule in both English and German, I would have to de-activate two rules? WHITESPACE_RULE and CONSECUTIVE_SPACES?
My grief is, however, that none of this has any effect. I tried “MULTIPLE_WHITESPACE”, “WHITESPACE_RULE” and “CONSECUTIVE_SPACES”, and nothing helps, regardless of the plugin that integrates with LT (browser etc.)
How is it with the languagetool.cfg - should that theoretically work? And if it should work, would it require a server restart?
