To get spell checking working for my native language I had to install the dictionary from seamonkey (Edit-Preferences-Appearence-Spelling, then from the Language field choose 'Download more dictionaries...'). I also have an English US/UK dictionary which I don't remember installing so I suppose it's part of the default SM (non-bin) package. In composer I switch between languages with CTRL-SHIFT-P. I also run LXDE. I have the default Gentoo spell checkers installed for OpenOffice, I don't know if that matters for SM (hunspell, myspell-en, myspell-it). raffaele # eix -I seamonkey [I] www-client/seamonkey Available versions: 2.32 (~)2.33 2.33.1-r1 {+chatzilla +crypt custom-cflags custom-optimization dbus debug +gmp-autoupdate gstreamer +ipc +jit minimal pulseaudio +roaming selinux startup-notification system-cairo system-icu system-jpeg system-libvpx system-sqlite test wifi LINGUAS="be ca cs de en_GB es_AR es_ES fi fr gl hu it ja lt nb_NO nl pl pt_PT ru sk sv_SE tr uk zh_CN zh_TW"} Installed versions: 2.33.1-r1(06:46:34 AM 05/14/2015)(crypt dbus gmp-autoupdate ipc startup-notification -chatzilla -custom-cflags -custom-optimization -debug -gstreamer -minimal -pulseaudio -roaming -selinux -system-cairo -system-icu -system-jpeg -system-libvpx -system-sqlite -test -wifi LINGUAS="it -be -ca -cs -de -en_GB -es_AR -es_ES -fi -fr -gl -hu -ja -lt -nb_NO -nl -pl -pt_PT -ru -sk -sv_SE -tr -uk -zh_CN -zh_TW") Homepage: http://www.seamonkey-project.org Description: Seamonkey Web Browser # eix -I spell [I] app-dicts/myspell-en Available versions: 20081002 Installed versions: 20081002(07:11:38 PM 05/26/2012) Homepage: http://lingucomponent.openoffice.org/ Description: English dictionaries for myspell/hunspell [I] app-dicts/myspell-it Available versions: 20081129-r1 Installed versions: 20081129-r1(08:12:04 AM 06/21/2012) Homepage: http://sourceforge.net/projects/linguistico/ Description: Italian dictionaries for myspell/hunspell [U] app-text/gtkspell Available versions: (2) 2.0.16 (3) 3.0.4(3/0) {+introspection vala} Installed versions: 2.0.16(2)(01:18:27 PM 12/14/2012) Homepage: http://gtkspell.sourceforge.net/ Description: Spell checking widget for GTK [I] app-text/hunspell Available versions: 1.3.3 {ncurses nls readline static-libs LINGUAS="af bg ca cs cy da de el en eo es et fo fr ga gl he hr hu ia id is it km ku lt lv mk ms nb nl nn pl pt pt_BR ro ru sk sl sq sv sw tn uk zu"} Installed versions: 1.3.3(09:09:54 PM 08/04/2014)(ncurses nls readline -static-libs LINGUAS="en it -af -bg -ca -cs -cy -da -de -el -eo -es -et -fo -fr -ga -gl -he -hr -hu -ia -id -is -km -ku -lt -lv -mk -ms -nb -nl -nn -pl -pt -pt_BR -ro -ru -sk -sl -sq -sv -sw -tn -uk -zu") Homepage: http://hunspell.sourceforge.net/ Description: Hunspell spell checker - an improved replacement for myspell in OOo
