There are a lot of useful features. Documentation is small but accurate. Some reviewers apperently did not take the time to dive into the docs. Some of the dictionaries are lagging behind. Some affix files are made too complex to uderstand easily. Nevertheless a perfect tool.

No serious help anywhere, dictionaries are all outdated, no single help on how to write the .aff rules, or even what they stand for, how can you expect people to keep dictionaries up-to-date if they can nowhere find the layout & meaning of the files.... CRAP, hopefully a worthy replacement soon.

Very primitive software. The dictionaries are incomplete and obsolete, and the spellchecking algorithm is very primitive. It misses most of the features implemented by commercial software, such as compound words support, multi-word checking, etc.
