Re: [Aspell-user] aspell 0.60 win32 port

[aspell . 20 . victim123]

Hi

Thanks so much for the reply

I've installed aspell [into the hardcoded directory ] for now

That is C:\Program Files\Aspell

so I suppose I should add C:\Program Files\Aspell\bin in my path to
use aspell from anywhere

Is there a UK English dictionary already somewhere ? or has some one
else in the list built it ? if NOT do not spend time on that ... it's
ok, I'll manage with the US dict.


thanks in advance
