Hi, what's your language? Finnish? Is it really that bad with Hunspell? > The Lyx-wiki says the following: > > "Beginning with 2.0 support for the aspell command line program has been > dropped.

I don't think you can add Enchant support without making your own LyX setup. You have to build LyX yourself or you have to change the OS and switch to Linux. Perhaps you can ask the windows maintainers to create the windows package with Enchant support included. > I suppose I have to install > > enchant-1.6.0.tar.gz (available from > http://www.abisource.com/projects/enchant/#download)?

In case LyX is build without support for Enchant you cannot add this with installing Enchant and reinstalling LyX. Stephan
