Installed Lyx version 1.6.2 and CocoAspell version 2.0.4 on Mac version 10.5.7

When spell checking a document in Lyx I couldn't "add" words to the dictionary.

After some web searching I discovered a fix is to comment the line "home-dir $HOME/Library/Preferences/aspell" in file /usr/local/etc/ aspell.conf This fixed the problem but involved a lot of messing about as user root and altering permissions to allow me to edit this file.

Lyx and CocoAspell are excellent applications. I think the issue I've described is worth fixing.

Thanks,
Shane.
