Looks like on my system something is not configured properly. At least
when I tried to do spell check for russian, vim told me that I don't
have the dictionary, but it didn't offer to download the dictionary.
I've downloaded it manually (ru.utf-8.spl and ru.utf-8.sug) and now the
command
:setlocal spell spelllang=ru
does not produce any errors, but it does not do any spell checking
neither. It only marks words written in English :)
:spellinfo gives
file: ~/.vim/spell/ru.utf-8.add.spl
file: /usr/share/vim/vim70/spell/ru.utf-8.spl
So, what did I do wrong? Do I have to do anything special to load
spellfile.vim plugin?
