Given a simple list of words, and the .aff file you want to use (for example you might choose to associate it with the en_GB.aff file if the words are British English, or en_US.aff if they are US English), you can run the "munch" utility from MySpell, and it will create a correctly formatted dictionary that you can drop straight into OOo (need to update dictionary.lst accordingly). The same applies if your word list is in any other language for which there is already an OOo dictionary. If an affix file does not already exist for your language, then you will need to create one, and that is where the reference to ISpell comes in on the link page you referred to. You do not need Ispell though. Drop me a line if you want step-by-step instructions.
