Re: [Aspell-user] Writing Colloquial Speech

[bill]

Thanks a lot for your response. I've now installed Lyx version 1.3.0 
(much prettier), ignoring the fact that it says it needs qt-2.2, and 
Aspell version 0.50.4

The apostrophy thing seems to be cured except that aspell doesn't flag 
ANY word followed by an apostrophy.There also appears to be another 
problem :(

Apart from aspell dropping the last character when adding a word to the 
personal dictionary - the new version out at the end of this week will 
fix that - any words selected for the personal dictionary are not added 
to it if Spellchecking is closed before the end of the document. 
Previously this was not the case and it's a real pain. I've 
run-with-aspell from the console and when I've tried adding words to the 
personal dictionary, closed Spellchecking before the end of the 
document, closed Lyx, the error message, "Mutex destroy failure: Device 
or resource busy" appears in the console. It also appears if I 
run-with-aspell and close Lyx without doing anything with Lyx so maybe 
it's a separate thing.
