Re: I need workaround of encoding problem
I can't to use spellchecker. Accented letters and ñ, Ñ are not recognized by ispell, aspell. export LANG=es_ES Then run lyx from the same xterm, so it uses the modified language. You should still get the lyx GUI in your language, assuming it is translated. And now the spellchecker works too. :-) No work for me :-( What can I do? I need run spellcheck. Your lyx installation is clearly broken, perhaps a reinstall is in place. What operating system do you use, how did you install lyx? If you get lyx itself working fine (with menu) but still have trouble with the spellchecker, ask again. Helge Hafting I get a new hard disk, and I installed suse 9.3, with this I installed lyx 1.3.5.

If the menu isn't translated, then you should get it in english instead. This looks like a broken installation. a icon bar, I clicked icon for file open and, choose my file (saved with 1.4.0pre) and I get error in conversion. Then I open with lyx (from icon), deleted list of fig, repeat process and when I open the file lyx go out (aborted) with an error message. Which is the date when You expect lyx 1.5.0 will be released? I can only guess - a year or two. The spellchecker and rest of lyx is supposed to work fine when LANG doesn't contain the UTF-8 part though. no work for me. What can I do? I need run spellcheck.

Re: I need workaround of encoding problem
I can't to use spellchecker. Accented letters and ñ, Ñ are not recognized by ispell, aspell. Common problem for unicode users, because lyx doesn't support unicode. That cause trouble when the spellchekcer expects unicode while lyx gives it iso8859 encoded text. echo $LANG with this nothing is show. export LANG=es_ES Then run lyx from the same xterm, so it uses the modified language. You should still get the lyx GUI in your language, assuming it is translated. And now the spellchecker works too. :-) No work for me :-( Lyx 1.4.0pre appears without menu, only Strange.

The lack of unicode should not prevent you from using ñ, you merely have to use an encoding where the ñ exist.

Re: I need workaround of encoding problem
I can't to use spellchecker. Accented letters and ñ, Ñ are not recognized by ispell, aspell. I try to use ispell from command line but I can't said nothing to ispell about char enconding. aspell -c --encoding=iso8859-1 filename.lyx With this encoding are ok but this no work well for me. With aspell and ispell from command line word are read break in several times like this: En la mañana del 16 de dici embre de 1793 ... diciembre (December) appears break and is not recognized. Aspell, and ispell, read dici first, not in dictionary, then read embre, again not en dictionary. This, plus a lot of latex and lyx command make the work very dificult.

Hi Marcelo, 2006-02-14 20:11 -0300, Marcelo Acuña: Hello, I can't to use spellchecker. Accented letters and ñ, Ñ are not recognized by ispell, aspell. I try to use ispell from command line but I can't said nothing to ispell about char enconding. How I can workaround and get spellcheck my lyx file? If you are a Linux user, you can try starting aspell in console-mode by entering at the command prompt: aspell -c --encoding=iso8859-1 filename.lyx whereby filename.lyx should be replaced by the name of the file to be spell-checked. This works for me with documents written in Finnish and containing special characters like ä and ö causing problems when spellchecking is made in LyX. If your special characters are still not recognised, you may try other encodings. Kind regards, Kimmo
