Thanks, now that you describe that, I learned a little more. I misread the various printf() and puts() as hard-coded absolutes, so your point does help.... which is it translates only where it is important. I opened up KDE under english and another session under another language plus set the appropriate aspell-settings in the components... KDE does show the correct questions as per language... doing a terminal session was not so fortunate (typed aspell -h and all help still got displayed in english) so I'm guessing that the printf() and puts() are hardcoded.... for example: /prog/[EMAIL PROTECTED] Appears I've got more reading to do to understand aspell. ------------other (misc.)--------- found a couple fixes to accumilate for the next release, nothing important yet, just wording... aspell program: README_diff.txt <= compiled aspell dictionary: README_aspell6_dictionary_english.txt <= choose
