Those names are there so the user can specify a dictionary directly. I just committed a patch for support for multi files with the ".alias" extension. Aspell will recognize files with this extension as valid multi dictionary files when specified directly (with or with out the extension) but will not pick them up when listing available dictionaries. I will update the aspell-dict packages to reflect this change shortly. It also turned out that specifying a dictionary directly wasn't working correctly. I committed a patch to fix that problem also. --- http://kevin.atkinson.dhs.org _______________________________________________ Aspell-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/aspell-devel
