Inline Spell Checking May Finally be Implemented in Kate (and Kile)

My previous article titled "Hallelujah! In-line spell checking added to Kate" brought a lot of traffic to my site through google. This is one of the features that is non-existent in Kate and in Kile, which depends on Kate. I use Kile all the time and an inline spell checking feature would definitely make my life lot easier. On 2007-12-11 user FiNeX reported that "Spell check added on KDE4 version of kate." Unfortunately there have been a lot of issues (or confusion) with it since not may distro's ship the complete KDE4 platform and not all applications that depend on Kate have been ported completely to the KDE4 platform.
Adding a LaTeX class file and a Bibliography style file to your LaTeX installation

Often times when I write a paper I would have to install a new class file (with extension .cls) and a bibliography style file (with extension .bst) to my LaTeX installation. Of course I can avoid it by keeping a copy of the .cls file and the .bst in the current working directory where my manuscript reside. If you have multiple manuscripts in different folders that uses the same set of class files then you may want to consider adding the class file to your LaTeX installation.

Hallelujah! In-line spell checking added to Kate

After over six years in the bug tracking system the feature request for having an in-line (or automatic) spell checking in Kate was recently reported to have been fixed. Kate stands for KDE Advanced Text Editor and is the back-end for a lot of applications including Kile (a recursive acronym for Kile - an Integrated LaTeX Environment).
