Enable dictionary in Texmaker

I started using latex very recently, to write a research paper. While working on latex using TexMaker I felt the need for spellchecker, so I tried the following steps for the same.


1. Get the dictionary file en_US.oxt from Open Office
2. Rename the file to en_US.zip.
3. Unzip it.
4.  Give path of en_US.dic to ,  Texmaker >Options > Configure Texmaker > Editor > Spelling dictionary to select en_US.dic as your preferred spelling dictionary.
