Gedit "Highlight Misspelled Words" enabled by default

I'm using gedit 3.10.4 on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS with the Spell checker enabled. At the moment, I have to enable the "Highlight Misspelled Words" option every time I open a file, even if it is the same file. I would like to have the "Highlight Misspelled Words" option enabled by default when I open gedit.

I searched for an answer and I only found this 2007 forum post that links to a bug that offers a command that doesn't work in my version of Ubuntu/gedit as a solution.

Is it possible to have the "Highlight Misspelled Words" option enabled by default in this version of Ubuntu/gedit?

It would also be nice to have the "Set Language…" option enabled by default as well without having to change the language of my entire system.


EDIT:
Thanks to @jozxyqk for providing a more recent link:
gedit highlight misspelled words for every document by default


No it can not be set as default.

That does not rule out that someone who knows how to decompile, reprogram and recompile the spell checker plugin for gedit can't make a setting for it, it is open source after all. If it is indeed abandoned, then it is even more so free game. Just give credit where due. I would love to have this option, and setting a different language as default too.


It is possible to get 'Highlight Misspellt Words' enabled by default. Go to:

Options -> Preferences -> Plugins

Right-click on the 'Spell Checker' plugin and select 'Preferences'. You will be presented with a single optoin to have highlighting of misspelt words the default for new documents.
