I have several spelling dictionaries installed: aspell-0.60.6.1,
aspell-en-7.1_0, gtkspell-2.0.16, hunspell-1.3.3, and ispell-3.2.06.
I have no idea which application uses which dictionary. But, now and
then I mistakenly insert a misspelled word in a dictionary (most
frequently within alpine, my MUA) and would like to remove it.
How do I find in which dictionary a word is located?
'/usr/lib ># ls -d *spell' returns aspell and ispell. Both have
multiple files in their directories and grep'ing for a
known-misspelled word does not find it within either directory.
Have you looked in your home directory or /var? It's very unlikely
that user alterations would end up in /usr. The hunspell variant of
ispell maintains personal dictionaries as $HOME/.hunspell_default.
