The third choice, dictionary erging, would have to be coded by hand. That's entirely doable in Inno Setup, our installer syste, given tie. I think SkypeWatch would be a better focus for anual installer coding at this point though. <smile>

I don't know if this is possible, but maybe you should make a tripple choice in Installer, something like: - I don't want a dictionary file - I want a dictionary file - Merge dictionary file with existing one. I don't know could Installer make a proper changes in 3rd option, so it can merge two files without duplicate entries in it, but that would be a good solution, and the "whole tripple choice" idea would solve the user personal preferences regarding the use of dictionary.
