Subject: Both Linux and Windows
I've Lyx installed in both Windows and Linux. I
need at least one of these working on spellchecker. I
need Spanish and Portuguese spellcheckers. Any
suggestions?
I tried 'aspell' on Windows and 'ispell' on Linux,
but not is working. On Windows I installed aspell on
C:\Aspell, and the Lyx seems to recognize it, but when
I press F7, no message is shown, and the text is full
of mistakes. At Linux, I downloaded the last 'ispell',
then I compiled it and when I press F7, it said that
'No words are found', but I know Linux, and I know
everything was correctly done.
Thanks a lot in advance! This group is wonderful!

Did you check Aspell independently of LyX to see that it
was correctly installed with the correct dictionary? So that
you created some small file containing a few deliberately
misspelled words and Aspell corrected them? If the test file
is once corrected then test with LyX. 'No words were found'
means no words were misspelled in the opinion of the
spellchecker. Also within a document, the spellchecker
checks from the cursor location and on towards left and
end of the document. If you haven't repositioned the cursor
to the beginning of the document, and the cursor happens
to be at the end or near the end, of course it won't find any
misspelled words and will say "No words are found", when
you run the spellchecker. At least that is how it works for me.
