Thanks for the suggestion Louis.

That Australian English dictionary by the way is the one I produced and 
contributed to the project. I already know I can do the same again, but I do 
appreciate you pointing this out.

My aim right now is to perform certain testing, so at this point I prefer to 
do what I am doing.

You are welcome to link to my website (www.JustLocal.com.au) to help others 
find the updated Australian English language files. You also have the article 
which I submitted to you recently, which you can also use.
