Re: Spellcheck>SOLVED
Have you installed either ispell, hunspell or aspell yet? Enchant can use any of them, I think. (I'm on Linux Mint, and I use enchant + aspell, for what it's worth.) You should be able to install whichever you choose, plus appropriate dictionaries, using the Debian package manager (apt? synaptic?). I don't think you need to install from source. Paul Thanks all who helped me with the spellchecking. I do have enchant (Debian bullseye) and in enchant/which is in ~/.config/enchant$ de_DE.dic de_DE.exc de.dic de.exc en_GB.dic en_GB.exc en_US.dic en_US.exc I found the added personal dictionary in en_GB.dic So, all is well Wolfgang -- lyx-users mailing list lyx-users@lists.lyx.org http://lists.lyx.org/mailman/listinfo/lyx-users

If you're using cocoAspell, you should tell LyX to store the personal dictionary in ~/Library/Spelling/.

Yes, there is an easy way. Mark the Italian text that LyX mistakes for english. Then use the menu edit->text style (for lyx 1.4.x) or layout->tex (for lyx 1.3.x and earlier) You get a dialog box where one of the things you may change is language. Set it to "Italian" and you'll be fine. Next time, use this dialog as soon as the language goes wrong, thereby avoiding lots of text marked with the wrong language. Helge Hafting thanks, it worked...my problem was I didn't think I could find aome language setting in the text layout... Regards, Diego

You can also use the new installer that does this automatically for you: http://wiki.lyx.org/Windows/LyXWinInstaller regards Uwe

Re: Spellcheck with Windows?
- Original Message - From: "Stacia Hartleben" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Sent: Tuesday, August 02, 2005 2:36 PM Subject: Spellcheck with Windows? I'm not sure how to set up spellcheck for windows. It kind of looks like Ispell is only for Unix. How would I do this? Download and install aspell from http://aspell.net/win32/ and the dictionary of your language. It is important to install this in c:\Aspell (see wiki http://wiki.lyx.org/Windows/LyX136) Then Lyx should do spellchecking fine. If you look under preferences it will say ispell but it works. Geoff
Re: Spellcheck Bug
That looks like it. I was running klipper and on turning it off the problem seems to go away. I had actions disabled in klipper but still it was meddling with lyx. For now the moral is, kill klipper and then run lyx. I will test the spellcheck without klipper for sometime though, lets hope the problem is solved. cheers Rajil On Tuesday 02 September 2003 15:27, John Levon wrote: > On Tue, Sep 02, 2003 at 02:51:00PM +0100, Rajil Saraswat wrote: > > 4.

Re: Spellcheck Bug
This serves as a perfect example to the bug i am facing too ;) Going by the same steps. Once the 'aer' is selected, if i dont click on the right choice 'ear' within a second the word 'aer' is deselected and cursor comes to the right of 'aer'. However this does not happen with 'tiday'. Here are the steps. 1. Write the text Youor aer ache tiday? 2. Go to the start of the word and hit F7 3. Replace the first word with 'Your' 4. Sit for some time with the word 'aer' selected , it will get deselected in a second 5. Click on replace and 'ear' is appended to 'aer' cheers Rajil On Tuesday 02 September 2003 14:03, Rob Saunders wrote: > Youor aer ache tiday?"
RE: Spellcheck Bug
While on the topic of spellcheck bugs: Win32 XP pro Qt Lyx This is a small annoyance with the spell checker: > > Please provide an exact set of steps to reproduce the problem > Open a new file and enter four mistyped words that will give more than one possible alternative. I'm using an English library so I've typed "Youor aer ache tiday?" Place cursor in front of "youor" and start the spellchecker The first word is correctly found and can be replaced However, the second word at the top of the list is "ear". You cannot now click on this and replace directly. You need to click on any other in the list and then click back on "ear" to get it to be placed into the replace window. And so on with the next wrong word etc. Sorry for lengthy route - Its far easier and quicker to see this happening in Lyx than to try and describe it. Can anyone else confirm this? Rob S
