Maybe some of you use Opera browser as well as Lyx on Windows XP?
I can't seem to get Opera to find the custom Aspell 0.6 built for Lyx,
and I can't get Lyx to work with Aspell 0.5 which Opera can use
(installed in C:\Aspell in both cases). Finally, it doesn't seem like
you can have both Aspell versions installed because Opera uses
c:\Aspell no matter where an alternate version is placed. Grrr.
Is it really true that I can only have spell checking in my email
client or my word processor but not both at the same time?
Joost has fixed it so Aspell can be installed where you want it.
Probably available in the next LyX release. You can have two
versions of Aspell installed for LyX, so I don't see why it
wouldn't work for LyX and Opera. The traditional 0.5 should work
with Opera or LyX1.3.7 -- and 0.6 should work with LyX1.4.1 --
they share the same parent folder, C:\Aspell but are installed
in different folders after that with different dictionaries.
They don't conflict for the two LyX versions. I don't have
Opera, but a full path specified to the 0.53 Aspell should work.
