Dear Eli,

I am using kde3.1.2 from texstar rpms. In those rpms there is some kind of "as 
you write" spell checking and I am using it even in hebrew. 

שילוום, אוילם מהה נשימע?  הכול בסיידר?
Those three words are displayed here in red, as misspelled. I can also you 
HSpell in the spell checker dialog as you can in english (which is the 
default behavior in kde3.1.x)

and for the test for HSpell:
it guessed right only נשימע, even בסיידר it did not guess (the closest I 
got 
was בסידר) . All the other I got were, really too far away guesses.

There is support in kde, but remember that hspell can work only when the 
locales are set to "C". In the package I made for Mandrake (which is found in 
iglu) I have put the main perl script wraped inside a bash script which sets 
the locales to "C" and calls the original perl script. A nice a hack until 
HSpell will be fixed.

I must admit that it is kinda slow, but it does work, even here in kmail 
3.1.2-texstar. You can try it in kedit where it works out of the box if you 
specify the spell checker correctly.

Koffice 1.2.1 cannot use hspell, btw.

We have our hopes high... I hope that it will not go down...
