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.
What's the way to test Aspell without lyx? When I
install it, its program group only shows the
uninstaller. No other executable app. How can I do it?
Thanks to help me!
Abraços!

I would create a test.txt file with a couple of deliberately
wrong spelled words in it.
"I am speled wron"
You can save this file on the desktop so that
if you have made a desktop icon which says
Aspell (drop files here) you can drag the
test.txt file into it and it should work.
Using Windows, and if you installed Aspell
into c:\aspell you can also save test.txt
in C:\Aspell. then from c:\aspell type
"aspell check test.txt"
This information is available by reading the
documentation.
Good luck,
Stephen
