Are there considerations about integrating aspell in a
different way and moreover is there generally a wider
interest in the community in a portable LyX?
Cheers, Sam
Regarding the C:\Aspell limitation to portability, perhaps the
dos subst or label command would serve as a workaround. Suppose
your USB drive was "J", then
label J: C:
I think would change J:\Aspell into C:\Aspell
if not perhaps the subst command would suffice called from J:
