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
All of your dictionary files should go into C:\Aspell\data. The en-US dictionary is included in the .zip. If people are interested I can build other dictionaries as well.
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 Regards Vinayak On 5/30/06, Stephen Harris - [EMAIL PROTECTED] <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

I am not sure there is a choice unless you build it, but you could try cut and paste of the directory to another location with Windows Explorer. Quoting from the webpage: "Unzip the contents of the download onto the root of your C:\. The path, unfortunately, is hard coded into the binary. The --enable-win32-relocatable option is currently not working in the Aspell sources. I would have chosen C:\Program Files\ as the default install path, but the space in the path name gave me trouble. Update: Seth got it working by using C:\Progra~1\Aspell for the installer version. All of your dictionary files should go into C:\Aspell\data. The en-US dictionary is included in the .zip. If people are interested I can build other dictionaries as well. That's it! Add C:\Aspell\bin to your PATH environment variable if you want to be able to run it anywhere. Otherwise, test the binary by typing aspell dump dicts from the command line." SH: I mentioned getting the other language dictionaries from LyX Wiki.
