Here, in ~/.lyx/ is a file called pwl_english.dict; in the LyX preferences under Language Settings -> Spellchecker the default in the top dropdown box is Aspell; the other choices are Enchant and Hunspell, neither of which are on my systems. In ~/.lyx/pwl_english.dict are the words that I've added, including those in the current document. So they are present, but each time I finish a chapter and spell check the document those words are highlighted and the tool pauses for me to tell it to ignore all. And, it doesn't do the latter, either; I need to tell it to ignore each instance of the same word which is in the dict file. Rich I don't have ~/.lyx/pwl_english.dict on my Jessie system. Is that possibly the problem? What happens if you comment it out and see if the problem persists? Charlie
