The "dict_en-US" is the standard for basilisk.Basilisk web browser
Basilisk is a free and Open Source XUL-based web browser, featuring the well-known Firefox-style interface and operation. It is based on the Goanna layout and rendering engine (a fork of Gecko) and builds on the Unified XUL Platform (UXP), which in turn is a fork of the Mozilla code base without Servo or Rust.
[…]
Is this browser associated/affiliated with Mozilla?
In one word: No.
This browser is currently developed by the Basilisk Browser Development Team, and is a fully independent fork of the Mozilla/Firefox code.
This browser was originally created by the team behind the Pale Moon Browser.

For a browser that is Firefox based and has fixes for CVE-2023-5217 and CVE 2023-4863 it is amazingly small.

Update
I asked the maintainer of basilisk on the palemoon forum how to incorporate other dictionaries into /opt/basilisk and not via the user's home directory, but got no response prior to this upload.
Though she or he answered a different prior question already. For myself I want a basilisk with en-GB and de1901 dictionaries incorporated via /opt/basilisk/ .
Seems adding a language pack is not that difficult. Code extracted from update-palemoon-live and since basilisk should be close enough code-wise to palemoon it should work okay to use the following code as guidance:
Code: Select all
## Add language pack and set language if present
if [ -e "$TMPDIR/locale/$PRGNAM-i18n-${LOC,,}-${VER}.xpi" ]; then
mkdir $PKG/opt/$PRGNAM/distribution/extensions
cp $TMPDIR/locale/$PRGNAM-i18n-${LOC,,}-${VER}.xpi $PKG/opt/$PRGNAM/distribution/extensions/langpack-${LOC}@palemoon.org.xpi
cat >> $PKG/opt/$PRGNAM/distribution/distribution.ini << EOF
general.useragent.locale="${LOC}"
extensions.autoDisableScopes=0
extensions.shownSelectionUI=true
intl.locale.matchOS=true
EOF
fi
Or just do it manually and use the above code as guidance.
But what I want is not a different language pack (the language the program is set) but different dictionaries; and the only time "dict" is mentioned in update-palemoon-live is here:
Code: Select all
# use system hunspell if user wants it
if [[ $USE_SYSTEM_SPELLCHECK == "yes" ]]; then
rm -rf palemoon/dictionaries
ln -sv /usr/share/hunspell $PRGNAM/dictionaries
fi
