Accents about jgabc HOT 4 OPEN

This is a good idea. I'm not sure a checkbox would even be needed, since any word of 3+ syllable that doesn't have an accent marked may as well get marked. Although, I suppose some accented syllables aren't marked because the vowel is a majuscule, and in these cases there'd be no way to override Accenteur's accenting if it were wrong (e.g., Anima could not be marked manually were Accenteur to accent it incorrectly, since we don't want to have to write Ánima)

Thank you for this suggestion. I am not sure when I will have time to look at it, but it is definitely a good idea, and I will look into it when I get a chance and let you know if I need any help.

Thanks!

Yes, what I meant was that any word that had an accent marked manually would not be checked by accenteur. (I suppose it could be nice to check it anyway, and if accenteur thought the accent should be on a different syllable, show the word in a different color.) You would thus not be able to override a word that started with a capital vowel that has the accent, meaning that if accenteur were to incorrectly accent "Anima" as "Aníma" there would be no way to override it in this scheme except by writing "Ánima", which wouldn't be ideal.

Those ambiguous words like tenere could be highlighted and accented manually by tabbing through, the way it currently works, each time you hit while the "Text" text area has the focus, the next 3+ syllable unaccented word is selected, and you can press 1 or 2 to accent the antepenult or the penult of the word.

The checking of the "yet-accented-words" is an issue of Accenteur, and this discussion encourages me to fix it!

Nice feature! I hadn't seen it.
In the present state, accenteur opens a dialog and lets the user make his choice, but your system is easier.

Another sensible point to be considered: the core file (static/js/data.js) is very big (8 Mo) and will slow the page's loading.
