PyCharm: how to export the pre-defined bundled spelling dictionary

Question

Title says it. I'm interested in exporting to a text-file the english.dic, python.dic, pythonExtras.dic etc., which are bundled with the IDE by default (see screenshot).

The related documentation does not mention how to do it:

• https://www.jetbrains.com/help/pycharm/2016.1/spelling.html
• https://www.jetbrains.com/help/pycharm/2016.2/spellchecking.html

Note I did find external resources advising how to do the opposite (i.e., import your dictionary to the IDE) http://blog.novoj.net/2010/11/07/how-to-add-your-own-dictionary-to-intellij-idea-spellchecker/

Answer 1

As far as I know there is no such option to extract the bundled dictionaries exactly from IDE, but actual versions of english.dic, pythonExtras.dic and python.dic can be found in intellij-community github repo.
