Steven, if it's OK with you, could you please outline the steps for 
installing aspell v 6.0 on Mac OSX 10.3? (I'm currently running 10.3.8 
but it shouldn't make any significant difference to 10.3.7.) I've 
copied this to you in case you're not still reading the list: I hope 
that is OK.

I installed aspell 5.x via Fink (it didn't have any later version), but 
I don't know how to update it to aspell 6.0, which I downloaded 
separately.

I need to use the Vietnamese dictionary, which I also downloaded 
separately, but don't know how to get aspell using it.

I need to be able to do this, so when I localize aspell in Vietnamese 
(for The Translation Project at the University of Montréal), I can 
explain how to set it up for our language.

I don't have a lot of experience in Unix installs, so I would 
appreciate an outline of what I need to do to get it working.

I had almost given up, because nobody answered my initial emails, but 
kept reading the list and saw your post today. :)  Thankyou very much 
for being willing to pass on your experience. If I can get this 
working, I can pass it on to my community.
