Description

Step 1 - Extract list of incorrect words: 

Once you install this extension, click a "world icon" on standard toolbar or use keyboard shortcut F9 or choose Tools - Macros - Run Macros - My Macros - HelloWorld Library - Module 1- Hello World macro. A new document will open and all mis-spelled unique words will be copied along with suggestions.

Step 2 - Add entries to auto-correct and apply changes:

Keep only the important entries and use Ctrl + Shift + F9 (or run macro "addCurrentList") to add those words to autocorrect list. Restart Libreoffice and choose Tools - Autocorrect - Apply.

If you encounter an error, verify whether the autocorrect functionality is working as expected by following these steps:
1) Type an incorrect word, such as "geear".
2) Right-click on the word and select "Always autocorrect to", then choose "gear".
3) Restart LibreOffice.
4) Type "geear" again and check if it is automatically corrected to "gear".
 
The extension will not work unless autocorrect feature is functioning properly.

Note: 
1) Tested using the latest version and language English (USA)
2) Need to remove Marathi / Hindi plus add-on if already installed. Only one plus add-on can be installed at any time. (Hindi or English not both)
