Hi Tom,

Thanks for taking the time with this one.

I'll have a look.

Yup.  Although there are no files in that directory.  Perhaps that's not 
important.

I can't get it to say anything else.  Where can a reset a language to give me 
more options for 
this dropdown?  I've reset the locale & language in Fedora, that doesn't seem 
to do it! :-(

Default doesn't seem to be an option, they're all countries & currencies.  Mine 
is set to GBP.

This seems to be the crux of it.  Hunspell doesn't appear in that box, and I 
don't see any way 
to add it, from this dialogue anyway.

I have added a couple of dictionaries, but I have these you mention too.

Yup, pretty much my setup too.

Nope, not got that.
