Hi!
I would like to use hunspell as the spellchecker.
I have installed it and a dictionary from sources
into /home/lyx/bin .
I've added an environment variable:
DICPATH=/home/lyx/share/myspell
I have uninstalled ispell and I have created a symlink (ispell) pointing
to hunspell. (ln -s hunspell ispell)
Unfortunately, it is not working. It says:
"The spellchecker has died for some reason. Maybe it has been killed."
Hunspell has a pipe interface with the -a option.
Versions:
- LyX v1.6.3.
- Hunspell v1.2.8 -
- magyarispell dictionary: Magyar 1.4
How to work around?
Alex
