From my keyboard:
Hello Stephan,
Here you have the screenshot. Did I say I was using Debian
Jessie (testing)?
Which of those commands in the drop down menu allow me to delete a word
word that I used several reboots ago in my added word list. It's sort
of my last hope. [see below] But I can live without getting that word
removed.
I did that before by the way. Checked the drop down menu, but didn't see
which entry to try as explained in my email.
There is no .dict in the whole of my /home directory.
My spellchecker is Enchant.
So, just to be certain as I could be. Ran a search through the entire
hard drive, all directories, and came up with plenty of .dict - 94 in
fact, but none that showed me where I might find the file I need.
I'll just have to leave it as it is unless that drop down menu holds
the key.
Thanks anyway,
Charlie
